Hi There,
I am new to the forum however having been an avid reader of multiple posts for quite some time now, I know that my answers will definitely be amongst you guys. I feel the knowledge amongst this group is invaluable and on such basis would love to have some feedback, critical and honest, regarding the selection of glass for my new .338 LM.
The rifle is a Sig Blaser Tac 2 .338LM, Atlas V8 bipod & TRG Brake.
My aim for this project is combine my two long time passions and really stretching them, being long range hunting as well as long range target shooting. I will be hunting Goat & Pig throughout North Queensland later this year and want to have the ideal set up. I have previously hunted these areas with my Sig S205 Phantom in 308 with a Nightofrce 5.5-22x56 (running 190 Predator Projectiles), typical mobs of game are engaged on average at around 6-800 Meters when utilizing the benefits of the surrounding hills and ranges. I have always seen groups of Goat at the 1000 + meter mark which i have never been comfortable in engaging hence the new purchase.
Any advice at all would be incredibly appreciated. I have been considering the S&B line as well as the March 80 power scopes however i am leaving the choice solely in your guidance.
Many Thanks for your time and if there are any crucial aspects i am missing, please let me know.
Regards!
Mason
