Anyway when i retired in 1999. My wife said i could buy me the top of the Luminox , A all titanium band and cased in a solid titanium back. And it was Advertised that the battery would last 8 years, and the illumination on the hands and dial 10 years..Well the battery lasted 12 years before i replaced it. And the illumination is still going strong after 16 years..Is this what you are looking for as an example?....
.... Absolutely Jesse... That is a fine comparison... I am not sure if other lighted nocks can match that... In fact, if I be a betting man... I would get on the Lumenok line before the Ignitors.. And I like the Ignitors...

It claims to cook food faster and seals in the juices. This product has met all claims and has earned a spot on the spam counter. That's saying a lot because my wife likes everything put away and spic and span. :wink:

.... I do not think many are aware but Boofest now has a staff chef in the name of "Chef Paolo" directly from Sicily via the left coast of Canada... Whether he was conjuring up some delicious Sicialian salad with tomatoes, onions, jalepanoes and a secretly guarded marinade recipe...or Italian sausage, salad and fresh Italian bread... Or his special grilled steaks... This is a true Chef in every word... He wouldn't even let me go to the store with him or pay for some of the food out of fear that I would find out his secrets :shock: :lol:

...so if Chef Paulo recommends something related to food you know it passed the ultimate test of Boofest's own Signature Chef..

Bullseye, Bullzeye.
I have never known a vehicle to achieve what they advertise, city or highway.

I think under optimum conditions with the exact bolt,insert,field point etc. etc. would give you at or close to what they advertise.

My Micro 335 gave me 328 consistently.

I'm not concerned about those two numbers though.

I'm quite happy with my groupings etc. so that's all I'm concerned with.
