Ammo.
135 Berger Classic Hunter
2.810 oal

Heavy Taper Crimp
1/2-3/4 moa
SD typically 7-8 fps
2,850 FPS


I’ve been putting a lot of time behind my SP10M in 6.5CM lately. The rifle was absolutely hammering. Outshooting bolt gun buddies out to 1,300 yards. It’s literally the most fun I’ve ever had behind a rifle.

Anyways over the weekend I took the rifle out, checked zero. Shot 3 inside of a quarter. Adjusted scope right .2 and down .2 Another quarter sized group. All velocities recorded via garmin while zeroing 2848fps average. 6.5sd

Rifle is zeroed

Then i dialed for 700 and sent it. Miss right, correct for wind, miss farther right, correct further for wind miss way left.

Hmmm. Let’s step back to 500
Miss way high, miss way way low, left, right. Extremely erratic.

Getting nervous now. Back to 100 yards

Same ammo 3 shots about 1.5-2 moa group.
Uhhh ohh. Grab some factory loaded 142 smks from Defender ammo. 5 shot group 3-4 moa

Okay, scope must be loose.
Check mount with torque wrench
All screws correctly torqued.

Put fresh paper up at 100 yards
Anchor rifle down tight on metal bench
Dial up 20 Mils, then down 20 Mils, back to same spot. This isn’t a proper tracking test but it’s what I got.

What the hell has happened to my baby?

Leica PRS vs Vortex Gen 3 Razor 6-36x

So I went to check out the Gen3 Vortex 6-36 and buy it with a 30% off cert, but I wanted to check out the Leica PRS 5-30x and side by side them.
I expected to like them both about equally, and leave with the Vortex, which I did, but I really liked the Leica glass, more than I thought I would.

Everything I read comparing the two, gave the nod to the Razor as being better glass. The Leica was quite a bit brighter, and I liked the thickness of the Leica reticle a bit more. I think the Leica was useable down to 12x, whereas the Razor needed to be at about 25x to see the little sub tensions. I like the Razor turrets a bit more, though I love tool-less turrets.

I had a Gen 2 4.5-27 Razor, and my memory thinks that one was brighter than the Gen 3. I must be crazy lol.

The Leica reminded me a lot of my Kahles 6-24i, but maybe with a bit more resolution in the Leica. the Leica was very bright and crisp, whereas the Vortex was very good, but didn't exactly wow me.

What are your thoughts on these two? They are basically the same price. I have a TT 5-25, Schmidt Bender 5-25 with the DTII+ turrets, and I love them, but I wanted something less expensive for a 22LR build.

Looks like the Leica has quite a bit bigger FOV, being that it's 30x on the top end.

I need to get the Vortex to the range and check it out more thoroughly, but I'm feeling like I made a mistake.

SOLD Tangent Theta 5-25 Gen 3 XR

Sadly my match days are slowing down due to new life commitments as a dad. Don’t need this scope sitting around collecting dust.

I’ll start with the bad, the object cap doesn’t spring open but once it’s flipped all the way open, it will stay open. How I got it from the previous owner. The windage knob has a little brass rash on it as well. Past that, it’s everything you’d expect a Tangent to be. Asking 3650 shipped, or trade for a kahles dlr 5-25 lsw with cash on top.

Mount is not for sale.

SOLD Leupold mk6 1-6 5.56 cmr-w

My favorite LPVO. Took this to a couple courses and used it as my truck gun optic for several years. As such it’s got some exterior salt but the glass and function is 100% 1600$ to your door or 1700 with the mount. I know these are rare but I don’t need to gouge, just need to move it along without dealing with tire kickers and low ballers without the class to negotiate. No trades, Venmo, ppal, Zelle.

A discussion about "problems"

<added to say that I apologize in advance for this likely coming across as a George Carlin type of 'bit, it wasn't my original intention>

I want to talk about "problems" or at least the concept of "problems".

I've got my own "problems" (and I do), you've got your "problems" (and you do), our neighborhoods/county's/ states/ federal government have "problems" (and they do).

There's all kinds of "problems" out there in the world- in no particular order, there's financial/emotional/governmental/mental/sexual/work/familial/etc type of "problems". We've made great big strides in identifying all the sorts of "problems" we all exist amongst over the years. I really doubt that anything in that particular comment is all that controversial or something worth squabbling about. I'd even 'double down' and say that over the past few decades we've become a nation that's hyper aware of our "problems".

But, and this is a 'Sir Mix-a-Lot' emphasis on butts level, I'd humbly suggest that we've become a nation that has chosen (or was engineered) to accept these "problems". We not only accept them as being "problems" but we have entire groups that use these as their personal identities. And we stand in a circle holding our proverbial dicks in our hands because we're only talking about "problems" and somewhere down the line seemed to gave up on talking about solutions and continue to make our "problems" an identity/ a protected "class" (and honestly there's more 'value' in aligning with that mentality than has ever been in existence before in our country). Everybody is "special" & everyone has "problems" but over the past 20 years we stopped asking "why" and instead categorized everyone into these social buckets and accepted that as our reality.


Stepping off of my soap box- I just want to leave you with this... I'd argue we need to collectively reevaluate our perceptions (and be open to our reality being a social construct designed by 'somebody' else). Why is it contrary to point out problems while using them as an identity? Why are independent thoughts questioning this societal construct silenced and why does the conversation never switch to how the perceived "problems" could ultimately be addressed?

It's fucking wild right? We're all experiencing problems, likely the same type of problems, being 'adminstered' by elected official with far greater "problems" than we have in our inner circles (and I'd also argue that exists by design because it makes "us" feel "better" because while our personal life may be a daily battle , at least our perceived household is still "better off" than our elected officials/ local/state/federal government.

And we beat our chest saying that everything is fucked, meanwhile everything in our lives (family & career) is fucked but "we" seem to feel better because by everything else being fucked it gives us some sort of weird Stockholm Syndrome.

SOLD Carbon Fiber barrel, Impact 737R take off, 6.5 Creedmoor

Impact 747R take off, 6.5 Creedmoor, 24 in.

This is a take off from a complete rifle I purchased locally. The barrel, action, and stock were immaculate, leading to the conclusion this barrel has seen very few rounds, but I have no way to know. The family member who sold this rifle (the owner died) said the was a Bartlein barrel but no marks to indicate manufacturer.

Only trade would be for an Impact Precision 737R action with .223 bolt face, with extra cash on my end.

Zelle or Venmo preferred payment.

$700 includes shipping. Full insurance extra if you choose to purchase that.

Thanks
