    Rifle Scopes Full day with the Vortex 4.5-27x - Initial Impressions

    Here's a pic of the 2C reticle through the scope with my phone (best I could do). This deer was at about 450-ish yds. Still doesn't do it justice. She had a baby with her and I could count its spots at that distance easy. **No animals were harmed during filming

    Need some GOOD advice

    Eat food..whey protein when you can't eat enough whole foods, I like Optimum Nutrition because I can't afford Beverly. Gets harder and harder to add muscle as you get older. HRT might be an option

    Rifle Scopes Full day with the Vortex 4.5-27x - Initial Impressions

    Rob -Definitely not easy..lol. Plus, you gotta look through this in person to appreciate it. You said back when I pre-ordered this thing I'd be thanking you, you were right. This thing is outstanding.

    Rifle Scopes Full day with the Vortex 4.5-27x - Initial Impressions

    Got mine today!! 4.5-27X56 EBR 2C MOA mounted on my TRG 42 300 win mag with a Spuhr Mount. This was a pre-order from A&A Optics in Liberty, IN. I tried to get a photo through the scope, but its a lot tougher to do than it seems and I suck at it. Maybe I'll try again later to show the reticle...

    300wm vs 7rm external ballistics past 1000yrds?

    I'm shooting the 208 a max 300 win mag and averaging 2830 fps with 76.5 grains of h1000. There's still plenty of room to go higher, that's just where my rifle was accurate and comfortable.

    Yet another 'beginner reloading setup' question: this list sufficient?

    Depending on if you plan on playing with seating depths in the future you might want to get the die set with the micrometer seating die right off the bat..those things are great and the Redding is dead on. The Sinclair primer pocket uniformer is nice to chuck into a drill. It seems like there is...

    20 shot load test

    Bubb: What do you think on these velocities? The impacts didn't help because I was only at 275 yds. and they were tight. I went up in .4 grains with 2 shots. I thought maybe using 76.5, and maybe another around 75.3-ish? Not sure why the first shot at 76.1 was so fast, but it threw off the average.
