faster and easier? You don't need speed when shooting at long distance At close range it's faster and easier to line up semi bucktail iron sights at raking shots and leading the shot at game I can through up a rifle and be on rear and front sights

Shooting Elephants wtf !!! Karma will catch up with you sir
Comment from : @PeppersOnly912

After watching a dozen plus videos on scopes and still having a lot of questions and not understanding things, this gentleman explained it to me clearly and simply brbrYou see, having knowledge without the ability to communicate it to someone in a clear concise way is useless Whenever I teach someone anything I use the KISS rule first, keep it simple stupid

Comment from : @AntonioGualdarama-w9m

Thank you thank you thank you thank you finally somebody that can actually explain things properly at a pace that I can comprehend download and be able to know exactly what I'm going to hunt down in scope wise I've been looking at so many videos and I'm telling you you did absolutely phenomenal thank you
Comment from : @idecidenotyou

Thanks for the clear explanation of the nomenclature and types of optics I’m looking to buy my first scope and this was really helpful brbrI have to say though, safari shooting? There’s no need to shoot peaceful elephants, they already struggle in the wild, I found it really distasteful
Comment from : @timmy3822

Do yourself and do not buy and spend the extra money on a better scope I am unable to get this scope zeroed and is ultra cheap

Comment from : @shaneweightman

One summer day’s ( 2004 ) a friend come visiting me ( Tehran ) he asking me if I know a place to can buy a good scope for his rifle ( M1 )brI brought him to the big hunting shops, he choose one who had bigger objective lens thats why he thought its should be the best one when he giving money to the shops manager who was an old man, we saw one different scope with bigger objective my friend says to man how about this one? its Looks betterIf you have something better with higher price I would get that one the old man who’s looks very experienced and expended his life in this ways replied : do Not throwing out your money for nothing, what you had chosen is good enough , no matter which model you have …you never can’t see more than 200m and you never can hits anything more than 100meters my friend asked how can I adjust this scope?brHe said :brFrom 30m shoots 4 times to your target, than go looks which hole is closers to the center of your target, brthat’s the way it is you should remember to Aiming ;))))😅😅😅brif I didn’t hear with my own ears how he seriously saying those giant nonsense than Im certainly sure that he had betrayed us or joking or he was an total idiot but at that times I don’t know anything about rifle scopes

Comment from : @rogerwilliamson6267

Hello Larry It is another channel that provides very clear information, easy to understand and clearly pronounced, easy to listen to for an Asian like me I like it a lot, thanks for the good information Take care of your health
Comment from : @panuvasungsopapong2891

In some of these videos Larry shows images of himself proudly standing over dead Elephant and Zebra What's the point? Are you starving and harvesting their meat, or just adding to notches in your belt buckle? How hard can an Elephant be to "Hunt" anyways They're as big as a house, move slowly and are very loud brbrI like the gunsmithing but don't agree with the "Safari" crap one bit It's an antiquated sport and pointless
Comment from : @mjay4700

Very interesting, thank you
Comment from : @dinnerwithfranklin

I had quit hunting in 1990 when I went into the Air Force and worked on advanced weapon systems, but started hunting Deer and Elk again in 2014 because it is fun and a great way to spend a five day hunt
Comment from : @paulbarela6548

What kind of satisfaction do you get from killing an elephant? Takes a real sick SOB to do something so evil
Comment from : @alphasmurf6563

25mm is 1" 30mm is larger
Comment from : @gunner4373

You have shot an elephant?? Go to hell
Comment from : @charliebowen5071

I was with you until I saw these animals that you murdered I hope you are proud of yourself
Comment from : @robertbutler8004

I should have watched this video before spending hundreds of $$$ on an LPVO I did not understand the definition of "Exit Pupil" until I took my rifle to the range for zeroing These LPVO's are nothing but a market hype Red dots for fast engagement; large Objective Lens for better Exit Pupil view
Comment from : @machinis

Wish you would have given some info/suggestions on a good hunting scope in the 22 cal for us squirrel hunters
Comment from : @manyfeather2knives423

What are you shooting elephants and zebras for? Hunting should be for eating and animal/pest control only Shame on you Don't be a douche
Comment from : @bosola7168

Surelly a very good presentationbrBUT please, don't go killing Elephants anymore, they're in extinction!! There ain't no fun in that coward actbrbrTHANKS for the great video!!!
Comment from : @otnielotmanary273

Comment from : @armeddiver

I have a long rage POF-308 with a 20" barrel and just recently purchased a Burris Fullfield IV 6-24x50mm Hunting Rifle Scope SCR MOA scope brI think this will work really well for long distance shooting also, because it is more precise than MIL, but takes slightly longer to set up
Comment from : @netsurfers9357

Very well done Thank You
Comment from : @krisjohansen3823

Finally! A man who can express himself clearly on a technical issue Nicely thought out presentation, nicely delivered

Comment from : @borjastick

Learning about this in my gunsmithing class Thank you SO much Larry for this video! It helped me understand this topic so much better!
Comment from : @user-sn4fc7bc5j

A scope is a form of telescope The size objective of a telescope does determine how much light it gathers Since the objective lens does not generate any light, it can't "transmit" light However, the scope can be said to transmit light to the eye
Comment from : @jayecurry1369

Scope for my hand gun and shotgun 😂😂🤣
Comment from : @samyza200

lol aside from variable power i just choose my scopes based on price 150-200 sits well with me
