Down to the last box of Federal Premium Berger Classic Hunters for my 270 WSM and now that they're discontinued I need another go-to factory option. For the record, I'd continue to shoot those if they were still made...very accurate, good terminal performance, and chrono verified 3,315 FPS...but...
Obviously conditions influence your comfortable shooting distance, but, overall I'm curious what some of you more seasoned long range guys consider a "chip shot" under normal conditions.
I shot my first centerfire rifle at age 22 and couldn't hit a 12" gong from the bench at 300 yards LOL...
Bout as close as you're going to get to the real deal Holyfield birria without going to Mexico, venison birria tacos.
As I seem to kill more deer every year and refuse to pay a processor, I've gotten in the habit of freezing huge chunks of the hind quarter instead of individual muscle...
For fellas who don't like or want to spin turrets, this is imho one of the best options out there. Best BDC reticle I know of, gets ya to 525-ish with .308 class cartridges and almost 700 with fast magnums. Meopta ballistic app is super accurate for determining hashes.
For those who care about...
Up for grabs is a never in-stock SWFA UL with the BDC reticle.
Glass is pristine. Body is free of any marks aside from a couple tiny rubs near the objective hood.
$375 TYD for this lil unicorn.
Figured my fellow gear nerds would appreciate this...
Been shooting a Mossberg 500 pump, 12 gauge of course, for turks the past few seasons. It has a 20" barrel and last season I put a pistol grip on it. Super compact, dang handy...just a great no nonsense setup.
Wasn't light enough for my...
Joining a Montana buddy to pick up his new trailer in April down in CO. We're turkey junkies planning on hunting our way back.
Trying to navigate the "draw" vs OTC options, and hoping for a CO resident to chime in on the differences.
Thanks in advance, more than happy to trade intel on MT as...
1" tube, glass is without fault, small rub on windage cap pictured is only blemish. Let's call it 9.5 outta 10 condition.
CDS has been used for a zero stop turret in MOA, not customized to a load.
This one has been tested thoroughly out to 700 yards and appears to be an excellent sample...
After some thoughtful conversations, lots of reading, and too many anecdotes to ignore we switched our bird dogs over to a full raw diet 3 months ago, and after a full hunting season under our belts, won't be going back to kibble...ever.
Couple things first, there are plenty of vets who support...
Glass is flawless, armor is in excellent shape with a tiny amount of wear near bridge where the bino harness has slightly smoothed out the texture. (I don't think anyone would notice but prefer to disclose anything even if item is still 99.9% mint)
Comes with all lens covers, neck strap, Meopta...
Sig Kilo 2000 in good hunting shape. Glass is in good shape with minor swirling from cleaning in the field, body has some rash/dings from typical usage. Overall I'd rate the condition as an 8 outta 10
Full battery and reliably functions as new.
$220 PP or Venmo, open to a variety of...
Still waiting on my backordered 3-9, and about to scoop a new 10x to fill that role.
Checking to see if anyone is looking to sell a used 10x in good/great shape before doing so. Would like to pay $200, and prefer the rear parallax model.
Thanks!
Selling my trusty 8x32s.
Glass is pristine. Cabelas badges are intact with typical patina. All lens covers and carry case included. Tricer adapter in photo is NOT included, original Meopta thread cover will be re- installed. Note that Meopta has never offered an HD version of the 8x32s except...
Looking to thin the rifle collection after some recent upgrades.
Up for grabs is a Savage Lightweight Hunter chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor.
Rifle is topped with a Leupold VX-2 3-9 with CDS turret in Talley Lightweights. Turret has not been sent in to be customized. Duplex reticle. Couple small...
The .223 and 6.5CM/.260 threads are in the running for greatest Rokslide threads of all time IMHO.
With that said, where's the love for the .243?
I just ran the numbers on a 90 grain ELD-X leaving the muzzle at 3100 FPS, and at my elevation that bullet doesn't fall below 1800 FPS 'til just...
