    Vortex razor hd 4000 rangefinder

    I have ranged a metal barn at over 2000, a large oak grove at 1900, steel at 1400 and cows at over 1000. Image is very clear and low light is pretty good but can't compare to the leica.

    Rifle Scopes $1000 scope to shoot 1000 yards need help

    Hard to beat the Bushnell Elite series at Cameraland's prices. I got a 3-12x44 with G3 reticle for my 6.5x55 hunting rifle a few months ago and love it. No trouble shooting steel out to 1400 yards. The 3.5-21 is a little heavier and a little bigger but still well under $1000

    Accuracy International AT - Worth It?

    I've wanted an AI rifle ever since I new what an AI was. I've had several custom rifles over the last several years that shot great. Last March when Eurooptic had demos on sale i was in a position to sell a few guns and buy an AI AX 308 even though I'd never seen one other than on the...

    Rifle Scopes What magnification at what range

    I regularly shoot to 1400 yards and very seldom go above 15-18x on my razor 4.5-27 and can spot my own hits. Above 20x mirage can be a problem and image quality just seems to be better in that range.

    Range Report Looking for a different 308 load

    I would try fgmm 185 juggernaut or the berger 175 or 185 loads. Berger says the 185s will stabilize in a 1-12. The fggm load is very accurate in my 1-10.

    Paint for steel targets

    I use the cheapest paint I can get. White with a yellow or orange trueing line. I recently bought some 1/4" ar500 silhouettes from jc steel targets. He makes the best targets I've got. Recommended for up to either 300 or 338, I dont remember off hand, at 1000+. They've been shot with 308 and...

    Question about lot-to-lot variation in Varget

    Ok. Didn't know it might be that much. Im loading 43.5 varget with a 185 juggernaut or 43.0 with 185 scenar with no pressure signs. Neither is compressed. It's still shooting good just needs more elevation at distance. I was just curious if that big a difference was common with varget

    Question about lot-to-lot variation in Varget

    I've read that varget can show considerable variation between lots. How much have you seen in your shooting? I'm shooting an AIAX 308 with factory bartlein 1-10 barrel with about 1500 rounds. I do not have a chronograph so velocity is approximate but trued at 1125 and 1400 using JBM. Using...

    Rifle Scopes Best compact and light weight scope

    I recently put a bushnell lrts 3-12 on my hunting rifle and I'm really liking it. Glass is good, it tracks reliably and I like the g3 reticle. It's also a bargain right now at cameraland.
