The Burris XTR PS is a new tactical scope designed for precision shooters, featuring a 34mm tube and mechanical adjustments. A key innovation is its heads-up display (HUD) that connects to the Burris Connect app to push ballistics data, allowing for one-yard adjustments without needing a continuous connection. The scope offers features like angle compensation, windage correction display, and an integrated shot timer for competitive shooting.

This video introduces the Leupold BX-4 Range HD binoculars, highlighting their TBRW (True Ballistic Range With Wind) system as a key feature for hunters. The presenter emphasizes the importance of angle-compensated shooting distances, especially at longer ranges or steep angles, and praises the exceptional optical clarity of the binoculars, noting it surpasses many competitors that struggle with integrated displays. The price point of $1600 is presented as competitive when considering the cost of separate quality optics and rangefinders.

This episode of Long Range Pursuit Podcast delves into the evolution and functionality of rangefinders, differentiating between 'smart' ballistic rangefinders and older 'dumb' models. The discussion highlights how smart rangefinders integrate rifle ballistics and environmental sensors (temperature, pressure, humidity, angle) for accurate ballistic solutions, eliminating the need for separate devices like Kestrels or dope cards. Key topics include the limitations of traditional methods like dope cards and BDC turrets when environmental conditions change, the superiority of dialing turrets over holding for wind under stress, and the inaccuracies of the 'rifleman's rule' for angle compensation beyond 500 yards and 20 degrees. The importance of verifying rangefinder offset and the advanced features of ballistic rangefinders, such as multiple gun profiles and trajectory validation, are also emphasized.

This video introduces Leupold's new BX4 Range HD rangefinding binoculars and the Mark 5 HD 2-10x35mm rifle scope. The BX4 features an advanced DNA engine, TBRW ballistic solutions, and dual button activation, offering a compact and rugged design for hunters. The Mark 5 HD 2-10x35mm expands the Mark 5 line with a versatile magnification range suitable for mid-range rifles, DMRs, and AR platforms, emphasizing its lightweight construction and precision.

It's recommended for serious hunters and long-range shooters seeking a reliable, feature-rich rangefinder without a prohibitive cost.

This video review from Iraqveteran8888 introduces the new Nikon Monarch 3000 STABILIZED Rangefinder for 2018. Expert reviewer Eric highlights its key feature: image stabilization, which significantly improves usability in challenging conditions like wind or for users with unsteady hands. The review also covers practical applications like angle compensation for hunting and target prioritization modes, comparing it favorably against older traditional rangefinders.

This video details a Wyoming elk hunt at 770 yards, emphasizing long-range shooting techniques and equipment. It highlights the importance of barrel maintenance for accuracy, demonstrated by Gunwerks owner Aaron Davidson. The hunt showcases the use of advanced tools like the G7 BR2 Rangefinder for precise shots in challenging terrain.

This guide details a long-range engagement technique using an H&K G3 rifle at 470 yards, as demonstrated by BuggetNuster. It emphasizes angle compensation for downward shots, utilizing a Trijicon ACOG and Magpul PRS stock, and the effectiveness of standard ball ammunition. The instruction highlights the importance of understanding ballistics and reticle holdovers for extended range accuracy.

This video from SHOT Show 2013 features Trevor Bending of OpticsPlanet and Jon B. LaCorte from Nikon discussing two new rangefinders. The Nikon ProStaff 7 and Archer's Choice models are highlighted for their 10% smaller size, improved optics, and specific features like ID Technology for angle compensation and selectable reticles for low-light conditions. Pricing and key specifications are also provided, positioning them as competitive options for hunters and archers.

This video demonstrates advanced long-range black bear hunting techniques in Idaho, showcasing successful shots at distances up to 825 yards. The instruction, delivered by experienced hunters from Stuck N The Rut and featuring Gunwerks equipment, emphasizes precise range estimation, angle compensation calculations, and accurate turret dialing for extreme distances. It highlights the importance of shot placement and ethical hunting practices in challenging environments.

This video explains the Rifleman's Rule for compensating for incline shots in long-range shooting. It details a simplified trigonometric method where the line of sight distance is multiplied by the cosine of the incline angle to determine the adjusted 'shoot-to' range. The instructor demonstrates this technique with a target at 600 yards and a 15-degree incline, resulting in a calculated range of 580 yards.
