New Burris XTR PS

D_TROS
really want to try the E6 as well as this scope. Was able to play with the clickless turrets... kinda freaky honestly but a great idea. The kestrel never gives even numbers anyway,.. They def were stiff enough to not be bumped. And even if you did looking through the scope you would notice right away,

Have to say the level and the timer in HUD would be very nice.

Ukraine war Bullshit.

SNB, any truth to the rumour below?

SNB is leading a crack commando unit that was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Kiev underground. Today, still wanted by the Russian government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire, the Z team to storm the gates of the Kremlin.

I've got a little 100th scale Ukranian flag I'm going to hoist up on a toothpick once you send me proof of Putin's demise.

Slava Ukraini!

My 7-300 PRC Project

I can't even begin to guess how much money I've "wasted" in the sake of just trying things out. To me, that's half (or maybe more than half) the fun.

Also, I'm kind of surprised that you're getting the speeds you are with N568. I'm getting close to 200 fps slower with it on my 300 PRC with 220gr Bergers - and it's a bit slow for the 220s... I was getting 2915 fps with RL 26 and I'm 2815 with the VV powder.

I definitely really don't know what "the" speed powder is for the 300, and in this case the 7-300 PRCs are. I don't really play with any magnums because I don't have the room for them out here. On Vihtavouri's website, it shows that N570 gives a bit of a boost over N568 by about 30-80 FPS. I would imagine that would be the same with the 7-300, but that is just a guess.

Your 37XC would be three times the overkill for my area :D .

I also didn't know that 3K was fast for N568. When I looked on VV's website for load data, I tried to guess around the 215 Berger. They show a max of 81gr. I figured I'd be able to get up to that, but by 80gr I definitely had a serious ejector mark. I am guessing I'm running closer to the upper limits of pressure as it is with 79.0. Maybe Peterson brass for the 300 has less capacity than others. I know that is the case for their Creedmoor-based cartridges as I have their brass in 6CM too.

I'm happy with the results. I'm not used to shooting magnums, so I'm sure a seasoned shooter with a lot of recoil and blast experience would do better than me. I kind of turned into a weenie over the past few years shooting mostly .308 and below.

A lot of whatever you could call success was luck for sure.

I appreciate your input.
