- Sig Sauer has been making big waves in the hunting space over the past several years. What began as a successful wagon factory in Switzerland has developed into firearms, ammo, optics, and suppressors. Anthony and Troy from Sig Sauer stopped by the GOHUNT office to talk about rangefinders, rifle scopes, and the new groundbreaking lineup of ZULU6 Optical Image Stabilizing binoculars. The guys discuss the benefits of a binocular that electronically cancels handshake and vibration. They also share hunting stories and tips and tactics to help you be more successful. The ZULU6 binoculars are truly pushing the envelope in hunting technology, and the Big Hunt Guys have the scoop that you need to hear!

Great interview.
Is there a video out there about the history of Sig Sauer?
I do love the Sigs, have not used the image stabilizing ones but have used their LRFs and LRF Bino’s for years. Unfortunately they have proven to be less then reliable. I’ll skip my previous 2 warranty claims and just skip to the recent. In late August this year one tube on my Kilo 3k’s fogged up, I sent them to Sig and they returned them immediately saying there is nothing wrong with them. I get them back and within 24 hours the tube is completely fogged again and I am dumb founded. I sent them pictures and returned them yet again. This time they quickly replaced them with new Kilo 6k’s. I am happy and going into my 1st rifle season hunt in Colorado truly happy as they are great bino’s. Well after 2 days of scouting and 2 days into season, the focus knob on my less then a month old pair of Bino’s broke. I cannot focus on anything past 10 yards. Have to completely waste a day hiking out and finding a local outdoor store on a Sunday to find not only new bino’s but LRF as well. Completely unacceptable for a product to be this unreliable. While I know Sig will replace the broken Kilo 6k’s I don’t know if I can depend on them enough to use for future hunts.
Thank you guys great information technology is going wild.
Im going to check with Sig on there Red Dot for my P320 X 10mm

Just ordered a pair of Zulu6 HDX 16x42s yesterday after looking through them in store, game changer for me
Why did you go with 16’s versus 10’s? I’m a big 10 guy but it seems like with the Zulu’s, most, not all, people prefer the 16’s
I just picked up the zulu 6 12 power they are amazing total game changer for coyote hunting.
Are you grip and grinning the Llama….🤣
Hahaha! That was funny!
What would be the advantage of a 12 power and would be good for bow hunting out of Treestands?
I got Zulu 6 HDX 16x42 a week ago and here are my findings after using it for couple of days.
PROs:
- low volume, slim profile, extremely lightweight for 16x (only 21.9oz or 621g), awesome futuristic design
- best-in-class Image Stabilization (3° Correction angle vs. 2° for Kite APC vs. 0.9° for Canon IS) without artifacts
- IS is totally silent (good for hunting, birding, surveillance), 1 AA battery lasts 30h vs 3-8h for Canon IS
- best glass in its price-class with ED & HT glass and no observed CA at 16x
- 61° AFOV, 2.65mm exit pupil, 4m close focus (I measured 3m) are sufficient for most applications
- totally waterproof IPX7, non-slippery surface, scratch resistant lens coatings, love FDE color
- infinite guarantee (repairs and replacements at no charge), 5 year warranty on electronic components vs. 3 years for Canon
- zero eye fatigue after prolonged use, beats all non-stabilized alpha bins in terms of resolution handheld vs. handheld
- perfect for hunting, travel, cruises, general nature, surveillance, bird watching, plane spotting, handheld astronomy, sport fishing, etc.
- can be easily used with one hand only
CONs:
- no proper lens caps, carrying case could be of better quality, better fit & matching color
- new "Target Mode" is really rock-steady but image gets a little bit less sharp compared to "Scan Mode"
- metal rings on the neck strap may produce loud sound when hitting sides of binocular
Very well put together comment. IMO most people don’t even care about all these specs but they are sooo important.
I would like to see a little more light transmission and a bigger exit pupil on the
16 x 42s.
Are y'all going to go through their product line? As an Oregonian, I had no idea sig optics was in my backyard. I worked near the Leupold campus in Beaverton so I was loyal to them until the I discover Leica Swarovski. Their tech sounds super interested.

Neville moved. He's free in Colorado
Oh yeah the lens covers suck. Can you make some good fitting lens covers and made a lens cover that fits the bottom lens. Make it and ill buy them!
