    mark kiwi liked post by XR500 On thread : ELECTRIC UTV, ANY GOOD?
    The big issue I see re quad vs SxS vs Zuk is taking them out of their operating profile. Used sensibly a Zuk would be my preference. Quieter, warmer, drier. And a bigger payload. And cheaper...

    I dunno how capable your UTV's are but I would be much happier in the zuk than the Kubota versions we were using. They are lighter and better than full size Utes but nowhere near as capable as a four...

    That noise thing is why I like the little Suzuki and Isuzu 'farmworker' type trucks so much. Much quiter nicer and a better heater plus standard automotive type bits fit... A lot of outfits are...

    Some more so than others, the problem isn't so much the machine as our tendency to run front and rear windows and a roof for the sound to bounce around in. The can am is the quietest of the lot, and...

    I thought...why doesn't he look at the Polaris Electric UTV? Then I looked it up: 51K plus costs!!!:roll::roll::roll: Looks like all options are stupid money. I have to agree: all the side x...

    Dunno if that's the same as a collimator but if you did what Zimmer managed then pulled the trigger, it'd probably empty your colon

    Glad it's working well for you. What ammo did you end up buying?

    I still reckon those colimators are more for confirming a zero. IE you zero the rifle using lead, fit the colimator and take a note of where the crosshairs are. Then if you think you bump the scope...

    depending on where you are or if you want to travel i have a colometer for initial sighting in it gets it pretty close as well but you still need to/should do a final target check

    I boresight at home aiming at an insulator on a power pole about 60 metres away. Sometimes I use the top of a stranger post around 30 metres away. If I don't have time to get it done at home I do it...

    This. Two extra tricks. - Put an unprimed case in the breech and bore sight through this. - The target boresighted for is best round and just short of filling the "muzzle ring". Think soccer ball...

    Or another possible way is to take a single shot at a bullseye and holding the rifle on the bullseye best you can then move cross hairs to impact point. Easier with someone else helping and turning...
