I tried out the 12X Sig Zulu 6 image stabilizing binoculars and am quite impressed with how well they work.
I rolled the dice on preowned 16X and 20X and they arrived in great shape.
The low light performance isn’t the greatest and a smaller field of view are the drawbacks but they sure are a...

They scattered at 200’ and the last one took off at about 100’ above it. Interesting birds. I’ve seen them squabble on occasion but they seem to be docile and have an order on which one gets to eat first.
The crows come in and try to outsmart them for a bite or two.
First time I’ve tried them so might set up the chrono on the next session. Seemed to be pretty mild and easy on the shoulder so I wouldn’t expect a great deal of speed with this.
Most of my shots will likely be within a couple hundred yards on a deer.
I might try to work up some 150 grain...
Swapped out the scope on the Savage 270 and finally got to the range to get it sighted in.
This gun had shot well with the 130 grain Accubonds and a different scope and I was curious how the 130 grain Ballistic Tips would do.
First got it on paper at short range and figured I would be on paper...
Just checking on the homestead herd when they came down for a visit last night.
They didn’t seem to be too concerned I was this close to them in the dark.
Took the drone up to check on Goofy and the gang having an evening get together.
Actually was getting dark but the camera on the drone did a descent job of gathering enough light.
Proximity sensors don’t work in low light so was keeping the drone up high to avoid any obstacles in the area.
I was going to load up some 130 grain Ballistic Tips for the 270 and when I went through the bullet stash I found some grey tipped Ballistic Tips. Factory seconds but should get the job done.2
I’ve been wondering how well image stabilization binoculars work so decided to try the 12 X 42 Sig Sauer Zulu 6 HDX.
Living in the PNW there isn’t a lot of wide open country or I might have opted for the 16 power
First impressions is these work well as intended to stabilize the image.

I was up quite a ways. The one photo shows we how high. Was using 9X zoom and then cropping the video.
Did some deer awhile back and was a lot closer.
They could see and hear the drone but didn’t seem to be bothered by it.
Gotta admit I was curious to see how they would act.
Caught one of the local herds up on the ridge. Was glad to see the drone didn’t bother them at all.
Interesting bunch. Goofy, the strange looking bull was with them until last week but I think the little spike ran him off so he could play herd bull until the bigger boys show up.
Two cameras on...
