Sorry, no good news from Leupold.
The VX-3 6.5x20x40 A.O. was not at their booth and the rep I spoke to had no idea if a replacement was in the works. I got the feeling he was more of a salesman than enthusiast.

Oh my, now there is a mug shot. Matt and Ted need to switch sides.
Looks like you guys are having a blast. Thanks for all the updates and keeping us less fortunate informed.

I'm wanting to be there too. Thanks to all those bringing us up to date on the new products and innovations. I posted this question on another thread but feel it important so here it is again here.
"So… after viewing Ted’s pellet sizing video would some of you at the show ask if any of the pelet companies are going to accurately size their pellets and lable them so we can shoot with confidence?"

LOL! Meeting some of the people here on the forum would be pretty nice. Especially since many people don't act the way they type.

Lewis Thanks for the photo recon of the Hatsan booth. It was nice to see the AT44 Nova bottle gun on display.

Hawken,
Tickets to Shotshow, 70.00. Airfare 500.00. Having your selfie turned into forum fodder, PRICELESS!!
Russinbaja,
I spoke to JSB and H&N. Both responded that they sort and match their products to the tightest tolerance achievable without prices doubling or more.
I for one would happily pay 30.00 per tin if I was able to minimize fliers and such.

If I wanted to pay that much for ammo I would shoot powder burners and or my Glock, $16 bucks a tin with a hand full of fliers is fine by me, i'm not trying to do brain surgery. Oh wait i am LOL.

Lewis, Thanks for asking. I think any interest shown for quality by us will be a motivator for higher standards.

Lewis, I'm just jealous!! Would love to be with you guys. You all look like your having a ball. And really appreciate all the updates and photos.

I know the response was tongue in cheek, but consider this.
30.00 for even a 250 count tin is 12 cents each. This is about the same as poor quality rimfire ammo when it's in stock. Centerfire, even 9mm is at least double. Remember we would be talking about a premium product suitable for extreme benchrest out of the box. Plinking ammo would still be the same as it has always been. Besides ammo cost is only one of the great reasons we love our firelessarms.

Lewis: you are right about that, ammo cost doesn't even come to mind when i pull out the airgun now, I don't know if i don't care what the cost, or I just come to accept my 500 tin of JSB's will always just be about 16 buck and will last me 2 to 4 weeks. But when i first got into the game it played heavy on my mind, that's why i went with a .22 instead of a .25 or 30 cal. Also I just take it for granted we are going to get fliers ever now and then cause they do shoot at such low FPS compared to powder burners. Happy shooting my lead slinging brother.
