wtfwtf
As I've said before sometimes its better not to listen to the good idea fairy, just because you can doesn't mean you should.
Why don't people just learn to stalk and shoot in stead if looking for gadgets to do it for them.
Get close enough to see hair and away you go.

It is on display at CES - I have asked a friend who is/was there to have a look!
He is Finnish and enjoys his shooting sports.

Agreed :goodjob:Having a battery powered sight can be a real disadvantage in a SHTF situation. Having a red dot scope with a flat battery...its a dead duck on top of a rifle and completely useless...hence why I prefer Scopes and Iron sights on a rifle.dromia wrote:wtfwtf

Re: Shooting and the Linux geek
aimpoint looks too high to me
Re: Shooting and the Linux geek
973 yards - hardly stalking is it. Crikey at that distance you are probably not even in the same county, maybe not even in the same country.
Re: Shooting and the Linux geek
Well I like gadgets so I guess I'd give it a go if I could justify the price. I would be inclined to think this is aimed more at the defence and Police markets.
