    Another great video. I did try a Zulus but found it too complicated and reliant on my phone to operate, superb image but a fiddle to use/programme. I've made these comments on a few reviews and forums and recieved a personal contact from Arken, acknowleging this is a problem as there have been a large number of similar comments worldwide.
    They are in the process of simplifying it and doing away with the need for the phone app. The new upgraded "user friendly" Zulus will be available later this year.

      Hi, thanks , yes it is complicated , got to say though the more I use it the quicker I get setting up different profiles . Arken do seem to listen to there customers and working on making it better . They have now added a pellet database which simplifies that section of the app a little :)
      I hope the upgrade is a firmware upgrade , I dont want to have to buy a new one .

    Great job on showing how to zero, one Q, you said make a note of zero distance and profile letter, got the letter but what do you mean my distance, as in yardages or meters? if you zero at 50 yds for instance does your ballistic calculator use that for you adjustment. I found the manual very confusing but think they are using the phone app. when you use instructions in the manual. Very unclear for me on what they mean.
    Thanks so much, well done video. 👍👍👍👍

      👍 eaglevision does the job, a bit tricky to setup but I can get it pretty close. If you could clamp the rifle down I think it would be possible to get it exact, I swap between different rifles so don't worry about it to much, just finish with scope zero 👍

    The problem with doing it that way is if you have to move your retical that far to zero you will loose the ability to use the range finder feature much past 7.5 magnification. Better off getting adjustable scope mount and moving retical that way. Goal is to achieve as close to zeroing and still have your scope opticly centered. Than you will be able to use range finder up to max of 20x

    • @cjoutdoors8264
      @cjoutdoors8264  5 місяців тому

      Hi, yes if you do have to move it a lot it does put the range finder mark off, there's a verity of mounts they make for the zulus got to pick the right one for your setup. I got one of the early ones 35 moa, no good for me. I use the eagle vision mount, get it as close as I can and have single figures on my X and Y 👍

      Hi, think its possible to remove the cover from around the lrf and get to the screws holding the lens, think you would find a video of someone doing it to a pard lrf. Not seen one of the zulus done. You would void your guarantee doing it . You could possibly do it with a adjustable mount , position splash where you want it and zero crosshair to splash ,if that makes sense.
