    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Clarity??

    Re: Vortex Viper PST Clarity?? <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: kvwpwr</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I think the way the original post is worded makes it sound like he expected NF quality from a Vortex PST. Which shouldn't be the case. It's apples...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Clarity??

    Re: Vortex Viper PST Clarity?? Thanks ArmchairElite. I am amazed when a simple question turns into so much more. You are right, I own 2 scopes. The pst and the nf. They are what I compare since I shoot them both each time I go out. I wanted to verify that it was my scope clarity and not...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex Viper PST Clarity??

    I have a 300rum with a VV PST 4-16 and an Edge with a NF 5.5-22. The other day I took them out and noticed that I could see the targets at 2-300 yds much clearer with the NF than the Vortex, even on the same power. At 200 yds I had a very hard time seeing the 1" bullseye, let alone my shots...

    Extended Long Range Gun Build Plan

    Re: Extended Long Range Gun Build Plan Is Shawn getting 3100fps out of a 338 edge with 300gr?? That sounds very fast to me. I could be wrong, but I have a 30in barrel and I have only squeezed 2810 with a 30" barrel and 89.4gr of new H1000.

    Lower back pains , any suggestions ??

    Re: Lower back pains , any suggestions ?? Over 70% of back pain is caused by tight hamstrings. Try stretching for a while. If you bounce while stretching, do it very lightly to avoid tearing or pulling anything. Keep us posted.

    Stanford developes tech. Better than steroids

    Re: Stanford developes tech. Better than steroids Very interesting. I love a hot gym since my joints don't hurt, but I am questioning if I should try a cold gym to mimic the effects?

    Hunting & Fishing hunting with sierra match king

    Re: hunting with sierra match king I wouldn't for 338 300gr. I shot my elk from 671, 652 and a third time at 630. 2 in the vitals and one in lower brisket. It walked another 20-30 yds before it died. Found one in the offside hide and it expanded very little. Same ammo, shot a whitetail...

    Best 338 Hunting Bullet??

    Re: Best 338 Hunting Bullet?? I hear you about the "long range" animal stuff. I shoot a lot during the year and consistently at 1000yds. I do not shoot animals past 700, even when winds, etc are perfect. No worries I will have to check out the ttsxs and the bigger accubonds. Those look...

    Best 338 Hunting Bullet??

    Re: Best 338 Hunting Bullet?? I have checked out all the below, but want to find a heavy (285-300gr) with as high BC as I can get without paying $2 a bullet. My buddy that built my rifle told me he has had bad accuracy with the berger hybrids for the 338s. Hornadys are to light. Accubonds...

    Best 338 Hunting Bullet??

    Hey guys. Last year I smacked a mature bull elk in the vitals 3 times with 300gr smks out of my edge. It walked another 20 yds behind some pines and died. Not the quick kill that I want. I love the accuracy, but they did not expand enough(I found one of them in the hide). With all the new...

    1500 Yard 0.25 MOA Confidence Poll

    Re: 1500 Yard 0.25 MOA Confidence Poll Eddy, Since we cannot agree on a set definition, I won't debate the "1/4 moa rifle" anymore. I am more like Cory. If I have a large sample size, then I will use every bit of information to describe what my rifle can do. I don't care if my rifle is...

    1500 Yard 0.25 MOA Confidence Poll

    Re: 1500 Yard 0.25 MOA Confidence Poll Eddybo, I went back and re-read. You said you would contend your rifle was a 1/4 moa rifle. Can you clarify as to how far? Also, what are the specs on it? I am wanting to build another here during the winter and would appreciate the info.

    Hunting & Fishing Elk Hunt 2011

    Re: Elk Hunt 2011 Thanks guys. It was a blast. All that practice and hundreds of rounds throughout the year paid off. We have 4 freezers with only top racks so I can hang the meat at 40f for 10-14 days. Get a little mold layer and then cut it up
