    Rifle Scopes US Optics customer service

    I don't post much in this section but, I had an experience I feel like I need to put here. Ok, Robbert over at RWS had an SN-9 with an 80mm objective on consignment... clearly a 5500.00 scope... Rob had it for 3600 bucks looking like new so, I popped for it. So, even before I got this scope I...

    Is there a much better ELR round than the 338LM?

    Re: Is there a much better ELR round than the 338LM? I've thought about the nitride process too. How long does it take? and, Did you nitride it new or did you shoot a few through it first? Jeeze, 3k+ and 3700fps!!!! guess there's another option for a re-barrel... I imagine the nitride...

    HSM bullets

    Re: HSM bullets wow, those are indeed the lowest cost solids I've seen out there. I'd love to see a report on them as well.... I've got my hands full testing what I already have.

    Is there a much better ELR round than the 338LM?

    Re: Is there a much better ELR round than the 338LM? The CT is expensive to shoot. It isn't horrible though. 1.80 / piece of brass... divide that by maybe 7 shots = .25 you won't load 140gr but, lets say you do and powder is 25.00/lb so, 50 rounds/lb of powder so .50 / round for powder...

    How does 220-grain .300 WIN MAG compare to 190-gra

    Re: How does 220-grain .300 WIN MAG compare to 190-gra I've shot the 330gr boreriders out of the 375CT... I'm sure Steve has too. After reading somewhere that somebody had trouble with them at range, I was a bit concerned but, honestly, they shot fine out to 1830 but, I'm still new to this...

    Is there a much better ELR round than the 338LM?

    Re: Is there a much better ELR round than the 338LM? I don't think but, somebody correct me if I'm wrong, that you'd be able to rebarrel on the action you have and go with 375CT. There are a limited number of action makers for that caliber. I doubt you'd be able to get it to go into an AI...

    Range Report DOPE question from a DOPE
