I finally got a day here in Texas Panhandle that I had time to shoot and the wind wasnt blowing 20+
Wind was 3 o clock 4-6mph Targets 6'' square at 500 and a 12'' diamond at 704 yards.
I ran these targets shooting one shot at 500, one at 704, one back at 500 and one back at 704 holding...
I got no idea about the science of the barrels and am a bit skeptical using a carbon wrap barrel for 10 round strings in 100 degree weather.
But, summer is around the corner and I will get to test the science for myself.
I own 3 proof carbon barrel rifles on hunting rifles and very happy with them. Verry very accurate rifles. We just re barreled my wife's Bartlien med palma match rifle to a proof carbon barrel and she likes it and accuracy is superb. My gun smith just spun a Proof stainless barrel similar to...
Dang it, I just ordered a T3 S&B. Oh well, I'll learn it and see if I can get something out of it. If not, sell it and move on.
You may get along great with it.
I find the reticle useful on generous sized targets. I dont use hold over or wind dots past 3 mils (600 yards with my 6 creed) and...
My favorite scope for most of my hunting is the ATACR 4-16x42
When I'm not needing something quite that nice and don't need ffp, I run NXS 3.5-15x50's.
You obviously mounting a high quality scope. If these rfles are high quality receivers with really nice parts, I'd go with Spuhr on total appearance of the rifle. Spuhr mounts outclass everything out there in appearance and function.
I have switch 100% from 6.5 creed to 6 creed because less recoil which helps with accuracy and is much flatter at distance than a 6.5 creedmoor.
My wife has just switched to 6 creedmoor in her tactical rifle but is hanging on to her hunting 6.5 creedmoor for deer, hog and elk hunting. Either...
Great looking product. I'm about to pull trigger on a RRS package. Looking forward to a tri pod system can run my rifle, NF spotting scope and Nikon D7200. This head looks ideal.
I been wearing Lowa for some years now. My everyday wearer is the Camino LL. I would recommend a good pair of marino wool socks from someone like Kennetrek or Kuiu
I had been using Tac Ops bag for years. This last year I needed a couple more bags for hunting rifles. Come across the Midway bag's for like $75. I had to try a couple. Wow was I impressed. I'll continue to buy the Midway as long as it's available.
Very nice rifle.
I have built a couple hunting rifles with Proof carbon wrapped barrel's and love them.
I have been reluctant to try a carbon barrel on a match rifle not knowing how accuracy might be in a 10 rnd string in hot weather.
I currently have a match 6cm rifle needing a re barrel...
Jard defiantly in my opinion has/had the best AR 15 trigger but the AR 10 triggers had a problem doubling. I hear Jard has a new AR 10 trigger and the doubling problem has been fixed.
