    Rifle Scopes Help needed to pick a Tactical Riflescope......

    Unfortunately, weight is an issue, as the rifle may be used for hunting in tough terrain, thus every spare gram (or ounce) will make a little but significant difference, at the end of the day. Again, the new Steiner seems interesting. Just waiting to see what the first impressions will be...

    Rifle Scopes Help needed to pick a Tactical Riflescope......

    Thanks for your advice. I forgot to mention I already own a Viper PST 4-16x50 FFP, which I am very happy with. I would like to try a different brand this time, though. J66

    Zeroing with two different loads......

    Actually, there is a difference in velocity, in favour of the lower shooting bullets though.... I think the Fmj's have a V/0 of around 3000, while the 50 Bt are launched at about 3200 (20" barrel).... Could it be the "recoiling" factor ? :rolleyes: Inviato dal mio GS 1150

    Zeroing with two different loads......

    I am not using a tactical scope with this rifle, so I do not want to mess with clicks. I know it can be done, just asking whether there are proven formulas :p Inviato dal mio GS 1150

    When/Why use an Expander die?

    I use Sinclair expander mandrels on my brass. I have found that concentrity benefits from this operation. I use to have quite bad co-ax results with the original expander rod, so I've got rid of it and started with mandrels. But it could be just hype........:D Inviato dal mio GS 1150

Caliber is a .222 Rem and I would like to set a Varmint bullet (50/55 grs) along with a Fmj of the same weight. I have tried several loads/bullets, but so far no much luck...... Tested...
