    Re: Nightforce BR scopes Thanks for the info. I watched the you tube video you mentioned and it was very helpful. Seems like the BR would do the trick. I might have to give it a shot. With a lifetime warranty why not... DoubleG

    300 win mag muzzel break or no break

    Re: 300 win mag muzzel break or no break I know what you mean.. I shoot with a friend in some of their corn field so I am never at a range and we take turns shooting. I hear that they can be a real pain at the range. I don't think I would bring mine to a range but if shooting alone or like I...

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce BR scopes

    Re: Nightforce BR scopes Looks like you are right: NXS 8-32x56 - 65 MOA NXS 12-42x56 - 45 MOA BR 8-32x56 - 50 MOA BR 12-42x56 - 40 MOA Looks like I am back the the original question. Will the BR hold up to the recoil? I will be using a 30 MOA base. DoubleG

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce BR scopes

    Re: Nightforce BR scopes Hmmm... Looks like I need to look at Nightforce's website to check total MOA. Main thing I was wondering is if the BR could hold up to the recoil... DoubleG

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce BR scopes

    Re: Nightforce BR scopes Gotcha... Thanks for the info. I guess the NXS 12-42 would be the way to go then. Looks like I would not even be able to make it very far past 1000 yards with the BR. DoubleG

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce BR scopes

    Re: Nightforce BR scopes Very good point. I didn't even think of that... Man! I guess with a 30 MOA base I would still have a good bit of travel to shoot for a while but I can see where i would want more MOA. DoubleG

    Rifle Scopes Nightforce BR scopes

    How much recoil can a NightForce BR scope take? I am building a 338/408 and would like to save a few bucks and get the 12-42 BR but don't know if it can stand up to the recoil. Of course the gun will have a brake on it. Anybody every put one of these on a heavy recoiling rifle? How did they...

    Rifle Scopes Best scope for 338 Edge under $1000?

    Re: Best scope for 338 Edge under $1000? I'd say Leupold 8.5-25x50 VXIII (older model used) or a 10-50x60 SIII sightron. Also you might find a used 8-32 or 12-42 BR Nightforce for right at 1k. I am not sure how any of these scopes will hold up to the recoil. DoubleG

    Re: Need help choosing a caliber..Free Opinons here! Some version of the 338 would do great with a high bc bullet and running over 3000fps. Any of those would be my choice. DoubleG

    What Caliber?

    Re: What Caliber? I guess you can hunt with a solid. I guess they were just excluded from the equation in my mind. They do have some fantastic BCs. I will have to look into them some more. Keep it up.. I think my eyes are starting to open. I need new ideas to play with. DoubleG

    What Caliber?

    Re: What Caliber? I was mainly thinking of bullets that could be used for hunting and excluding all solid bullets. Are there other hunting style bullets with higher BCs than the Rocky Mountains? I know the HATS aluminum tips are high also. The solid bullets do have some fantastic BCs but I...
