I'll jump in and second this 👆 , and this is coming from a guy that has been using swaro 12x EL's for the last 5 years and loves them. I just don't want the burden of carrying a spotter with a reticle and until Swaro or Leica add a reticle to their 12 or 15x binos I probably be sticking with these.

I just got a couple of these new 12rnd amend2 poly mags to try. Cycled 12 rounds through both my 25x47 and 6gt and they worked great, no hiccups. They are slightly longer than a mdt 12rnd by .33" but shorter than a AICS 10rnd with a +2 extension on it. Max coal is at or real close to 2.9"

Game changing, as is 4DOF provided you are using the radar derived models each has in their libraries.

I am starting to switch from Varget but opted to use N150 which is almost a 1:1 in my GT and Ive had great results in my 223 with 88 & 85.5gr bullets and 135gr hybrids in a 25x47L.

Nasa has live coverage starting in about 7 minutes.

Agreed

Try it out, you'd be surprised, it's kind of the same principle as a dead blow hammer.

@Fat Dark Earth That was shot numbers 31-61 through the barrel. Jumping forward now I took 33.0gr of n150 with the 135gr hybrids to a match last Sunday first pic was before the match minus the cold clean bore... second pic will be after 110 rnds were fired. Temperature from beginning to end...

I was a bit surprised at the results too, glad I looked it up.

Keep in mind I don't have any experience with it but AB has tested it and gives it a BC variation of .010 which is pretty darn good. G7 averaged .288

I'd load up a few at 31.0, 31.5 and 32.0 with Varget, don't be afraid to jump your bullet, I seat for a .055-.060 jump with 109 hybrids and haven't had to change it for the life of three barrels now. Lately I have been doing the same with 108 elite hunters.

I've been running 32 grains in what seems to be a tight bore Proof barrel. I have gone as low as 31.5 grains of Varget with no ill effects. 32gr is my primary load though and yields 2830, but this barrel has also trended about 40-50 fps faster than all my previous bartlein and benchmark barrels.

Wow, very damming search warrant.

135 grain Berger classic hunter, 130 HPBT or 142 HPBT Seirra match king.
