    Flat Shooting caliber

    Flat Shooting caliber

    Re: Flat Shooting caliber yes i like your point about the scope, i was talking to the nightforce rep an he said there is barely any differance between the 50 an 56 objectives, so i was going to choose the 50 as it fits on the tikka with the super low mounts if u have a rail. also i figure...

    Flat Shooting caliber

    Re: Flat Shooting caliber Thanks for the feedback, I'm liking the sound of the 243 an 22-250. What would shot flatter out of those two out to 300? Saying the 243 is shooting 80grn factory loads an the 250 is shooting 55grainers?
