Last Weekend sundown at Arber mountain in Bavaria

Some thougts from Germany... My first DMR was a 16" German Made AR with folding ironsights and an old Hensoldt FERO Z24 4x24. This rig was an excellent rifle out to 600m. First round hits at 16x16" targets from "rucksackprone" in under 20 seconds were the norm. Start standing with backpack...

That Pic was taken in Switzerland while visiting some Friends and having fun.

Is anybody here using AA2520 in the CM? With what loads (if any) H4350 is here in Germany no longer available. I use the Lovex Version of AA2520, the D73.06 in the 308. Good propellant.

Thanks for your great input so far. At the moment I am leaning more to the 6,5CM. The speed you can get is incredible for a non magnum. Today the german importer wrote me, there is no long version of the 7mm08 available. The 6.5 is in stock in 20 and 24 inch

Help, I need your swarm experience I own a 308 win Tikka CTR Now I want to expand my range with a light recoil caliber still able to kill an animal with up to 80kg out to 600m (alpine hunting at my 50th birthday, marmot or chamois) My two calibers in the closer pick are 7mm08 and 6,5 CM...

Here a group of five shots at 100m to verify after some banging around the rifle. I sight my hunting rifles 2cm high at 100m, so I have point blank from 30m to 150m. Sellier & Bellot 180grs SP RN

And my trusty workhorse CTR, denying a pass over the mountains to the barbarians.

Q: Is a 20 inch barrel in 300wsm a workable option, or only a fireball maker? I own a 308 win custom rifle with a 20' barrel. Now I am considering whether or not to ream a 300 wsm chamber in this rifle. Can I expect usable v0, or do I get just a loud 308.

The Fox was not standing broad, but at an angle, so he got partially gutted. At 0dark-hundred i have two aiming points. Center mass and high mass, depending on distance. At all my hunting spots I made terrain-drawings with distance marks, so I know the range accurately enough without a laser. It...

Wednesday morning at 5.20 I got the bro of the fox above. 135m from my blind (the same as above) he was looking for mice on a snowfield. Again CTR with 178grs ELDX.

Yesterday morning at 4.45a this fox was looking for mice. Shot him at 180m / 200yds with my Tikka CTR and a ELDX handload. I saw him move after I heard the bullet hit, the "Kugelschlag". He just made one step and then slided down a slope for some meters.

Over here in Bavaria beer is delivered weekly to your door, just a little more expensive than at the brewery. Beer is still considered a basic food group. By the way, getting a job at “Klett Bräu“ was the best move of my live.

Short update I got my Hunter 308, got a top deal. The first rounds were erratic, shitty surplus as function check. Sighted in the ironsights (Era-Tac front, KAC 2-600 rear), about 2 MOA, my average at this range due tobad lighting. Mounted the scope, Swaro 1,4-6#42, some rounds surplus for...
