I'm going to buy that scope, put it on a 22LR that was run over by my 4WD and see if it can hit a target at 10,000M :D - in all seriousness, ive asked the gunshop if I can upgrade my steiner T5Xi before it arrives. Love gadgets :D
G’day Enayet, the Steiner IFS scope can only be paired with Steiner LRF binoculars with Bluetooth link. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy the other videos on this channel 👍
@@enam100 Could you not use the new eRanger LRF 10x42 binos? they probably dont have the invisible IR thingy but they can still range to 3000m and are 1700 euro as opposed to 12k USD for the Steiner 1535nm binos? The new eRanger should be able to do it
Carols Rex well spotted! Yes the M10 is currently available with M-LOK forend. This rifle is one of the very early models which doesn’t have it but if you were to buy one today it would have the M-LOK forend. Thanks for watching the vid and I hope you enjoy the channel!
Bravo One OEF you are correct the tattoo is written in Latin. It reads “Amatos Tuos Defende” which translates to “Protect those you love” in English. I got this tattoo as a personal motto in recognition of my responsibility to look after my family and my brothers and sisters in arms. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy the other videos on the channel 👍🏼
Perhaps this is going to be a very stupid question that only an armature can ask, but . . is this gun and configuration of the gun available to the general public or only to the members of the defense force / protection?
It's very impressive system The only thing I like to know the price for the rifle desktop and the bonakilo If someone can afford it you would have to know the price so please put the price so we know it
Perhaps I’m a bit of a troglodyte but putting this many gimmicks and tech into a scope seems like just more opportunities for failure. Steiner makes great gear and they’re following the direction the rest of the industry is pushing towards but is this really what modern shooter (not gen z gamers) actually want and need? Maybe I’m just too old but I’ll stick with my mil dots and dope cards.
And I was thinking about "the lone ranger" all by himself. How does this "beat" the Burris Eliminator 5, except for probable quality (military use)? Thinking that one man with one scope is easier than different spotting binoculars... I am surely thinking something wrong, but what?
@@johanneslaxell6641 “tech” is nice... when it works and when it doesn’t compromise operational security (optical/digital signature, etc.). But “tech” is also prone to failure at a much higher rate than simple mechanical/optical devices. Laser range finders won’t read well/accurately in rain, fog, smoke/haze, through light to moderate foliage or on non-reflective surfaces such as animal hair or OD paint. If you don’t know how to accurately range a target with just the scale in your scope’s reticle, you’re out of luck. If your ballistic computer dies due to rain, cold, impact or simply being out of batteries and you don’t have DOPE cards or your data book, you’re out of luck. If you know your scope’s reticle, the size of common objects found in or around your target area and can do some very basic math, you can range any target. If you’ve recorded your DOPE from training/practice at various ranges, can read wind mirage and know your wind holds for various wind speeds and direction at various distances, you really don’t need any type of ballistic computer. If you’re a serious shooter, don’t get dependent on “tech” - It’ll screw you at the most inopportune times.
@@nbonner75 Guess that you are right. I have no experience in shooting people or taegets at +1000 meters, I am just interested and curious. Thank you for sharing knowledge 👍🏼😋!
@@nbonner75 it perfoms just like a simple mechanical/optical device, once IFS is shut down. I rarely use it, to make sure I can cope with all the necessary stuff without it. But once its on, its stupidly easy and fast when dialing for different distances.

Few have the ability to afford one ! Awesome setup at any rate !
Good to see you back Ben
Thanks mate. It’s been a bit of a battle but it’s nice to be back 👍🏼
Just got home from work and get a notification a new episode of "the long gun project" where's by beer! Nice way to finish the day
what a great looking rifle
Fantastic video mate. You certainly put a lot of effort into putting it together and it shows, great work!
I’ve just binged All your episodes today & have to say..... they are all good!!! Look forward to seeing more from you Ben.
Cheers Luke
Glad you like them!
If the range finder was built in too that would be amazing. Great as it is though.
DanG what a system hey. Thanks for sharing.
That’s what hopes and dreams are made of. Makes my setup seem pretty average
Amazing video!
Very interesting gear and a fantastic rifle.
Edit: that shot at 11:45 was epic btw

Im busy buying this exact setup :)

Great review. Thinking of buying the scope. Can sig sauer kilo8k LRF pair with the scooe? Thanks again.

@@TheLongGunProject thank you so much.
@@TheLongGunProject ordered the Steiner IFS m7xi 4-28x56 msr2_e based on your review. But can not afford the lrf binos lol. Keep up the great work.

@JH-jo9wt, thank you so much. I was not aware of the eranger. I will check. Much appreciated.
Ben looks like that set up makes you a better shooter .
Scott that setup really does a lot the hard work for you, letting you focus on the fundamentals. It really was a great system
@@TheLongGunProject thanks Ben i was joking . i know you are a good shooter
1:45 There are M-LOK forends available for the M10 now?
Carols Rex well spotted! Yes the M10 is currently available with M-LOK forend. This rifle is one of the very early models which doesn’t have it but if you were to buy one today it would have the M-LOK forend. Thanks for watching the vid and I hope you enjoy the channel!
Mate, what does your tattoo say on your forearm, I wasn't able to translate the full script but it appears to be Latin.
Bravo One OEF you are correct the tattoo is written in Latin. It reads “Amatos Tuos Defende” which translates to “Protect those you love” in English. I got this tattoo as a personal motto in recognition of my responsibility to look after my family and my brothers and sisters in arms.

Are those original turrets on the scope ?
The turrets on the Steiner are original as fitted from the factory
@@TheLongGunProject they look different than my turrets. I have the normal flat turrets not with the turret lock system
What is the bipod model please ?
That bipod is just a Harris short tilt and pan bipod
@@TheLongGunProject Thank you
Perhaps this is going to be a very stupid question that only an armature can ask, but . . is this gun and configuration of the gun available to the general public or only to the members of the defense force / protection?
It is available to the public if your local gun laws allow
@@TheLongGunProject Thank you for the response. I live in Sydney, Australia. Do you know if its allowed here?t
This rifle would be available through one of the major firearms dealers in Sydney. Horsley Park, Magnum Sports or Abela’s would be able to help you
An amazing rifle setup but at $30k, many shooters won’t be able to play with this system....
Agree. But for goverment is nothing. Sadly.
