The Richard Utting Blog - October Edition
A very busy few weeks of late with lots of Ballistics training day guys bringing all sorts of interesting rifles along.
Most interesting on the accessories front has been the new tripod from Vanguard.

Review by Kinetic Security Solutions:
As competitive shooters, we often hear the question of which optic is best. While there are many components of an optic that contribute to the overall quality and its ability to perform, this review only focuses on optical clarity/resolution. The definition of clarity and resolution for the purpose of this review is the ability to resolve the most amount of detail possible on your intended target. This can mean the difference between knowing you hit the target somewhere, or your ability to identify exactly where your rounds are hitting. Was that dark spot your impact, someone else's, or are you able to see multiple impacts within a single location on a target.
This review focuses on some of the newest and most common optics being used in PRS/NRL. All optics used in this review were loaned or personally owned.
