    Rifle Scopes Tired of 1-6, or 1-8xtiny objective.

    Just like the title says, this garbage needs to stop. When will the likes of Nightforce, Schmidt&Bender, USO, etc figurebit out? LPVOs need bigger objectives above 4x...IMO, anything less than 5mm exit pupil makes the magnification useless for dynamic shooting. Thoughts?

    Just like the thread says...has anyone done his or even installed one to shoot clays? I have a spare MRO & thinking of this combo for hunt early next year. Is the 2MOA reticle a hindrance?

    Internet searches for the above powder and bullet combo yielded very few useful hits, however, the believable information I saw seemed to indicate that there an OCW in the 57ish grain powder charge. I read some of German Salazar’s post on 30-06 reloading and one of the things he did was compare...

    Hunting & Fishing Wyoming Elk Hunt, 178AMAX or something else

    Like topic says, I've got an upcoming Elk hunt in Wyoming. I have an ton of 178AMAX bullets. These bullets shoot very well out of my 20" LR-308. Would y'all recommend a more fancy (read bonded or lead-free copper) bullet a la partition, Barnes TTSX, et al or just roll with the AMAX? I have...
