Coleman Performance 3 AAA Aluminum LED Flashlight







Coleman 3 AAA Aluminum LED Flashlight is great for the outdoors.

Coleman 3 AAA Aluminum LED Flashlight:
  • Ultra bright 90 Lumens
  • LED never needs to be replaced
  • Extremely lightweight and durable   
I have been using this flashlight all summer and now into Deer season with the same batteries it came with. This thing has been on boat in the Susquehanna cat fishing, boats in multiple lakes bow fishing, and now in the woods with me during archery and rifle season. I just now noticed at the end of archery season its starting to get dim. 
 
Likes 
  • Light weight
  • Very bright (I'd say it does a decent job lighting up a field when you don't have a spotlight)
  • Comes with a lanyard. I added a little climbing hook to hook it to my belt loop
  • Long Battery Life
  • Good Size
Dislikes 
  •   Doesn't have multiple settings. I like having a low setting when walking in the woods during deer season

11/24/12 - So far I have sighted this bad boy in at 100 yards and kept a pretty consistent group but I'm not happy with it yet. I may try shooting a lower grain bullet to see if I can get them tighter. The barrel twist is a 12 and from the research I have done they are saying that the less twists in the barrel the bigger grain bullet you can shoot accurately. Hornady makes a bad ass 50GR round that shoots at 3517 FPS and 1373 ft-lbs at 100 yards. I'll pick up a box of those the next time I hit the range. Once this gun is cutting holes at 100 I will move out to 200 yards and let you all know how it does. Below is the trajectory of the vmax bullet. Overall this caliber is amazing. If you need more power then a .223 pick up the 22-250. 

Trajectory (inches)
Muzzle 100 200 300 400 500
-1.50 0.70 0.00 -4.30 -13.50 -29.10

Update: This gun a super easy to do a trigger job on. You can literally have this gun a part and back together in 10 minutes or less. Cut 1.5 turns off your spring and now you're shooting tighter groups.
