    https://spuhrwebshop.com/en/isms/sp/34/9/sp-4902.html Could you go 30MOA Picatinny riser and separate 34mm rings? I know Badger Ordinance makes a 22MOA riser. https://www.badgerordnance.com/ar-15-10/riser-rail-22-moa.html Badger also makes a 1 piece mount w. 20MOA cant...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone ever use their illumination?

    Out of all the hunts I have been on, over 30+ years, I have only needed illumination three times. But those three times, it was invaluable to make a successful hunt.

    6.5 Sherman Short

    I love my 6.5SSs. One pushes a 156 @ 2975fps, the other pushes a 150 SMK @ 3038fps. Look at the ballistics of the 150 SMK and you will be pleasantly surprised. And they HAMMER game.

    What about 7mm 184 Hyb F Open or 190 LR Hyb vs. 6.5mm 153.5 LR Hyb or 156 Elite?

    6.5 Sherman Short

    I am actually running H1000 in my 25SST. I will have to look at my load data for charge weight, but I am well below max in my rifle, and getting 3230+ suppressed. H1000 has a good density fill, and is super temp stable which is what I was after. I am sure N565 would wring out the speed, but I...

    6.5 Sherman Short

    I have run them in both of my 1:7.5" barrels, a couple others, and even two 1:7" 6.5SAUMs. They all have shot amazingly. Ran them up to 3100ish with no problems out to 1200+. Berger states "1:8" minimum". "Minimum" and "optimal" are two different things. I have shot them in some 1:8"...

    6.5 Sherman Short

    I have been running the 144 LR Hyb and 156 Elite in my two new 6.5SSs. Both are crazy accurate. My 26" 1:7.5" 6.5SS is pushing the 144 Hyb @ 3086fps for my most accurate load. Even my fire forming loads @ 2977fps are ridiculously accurate. My 20" 1:7.5" was originally built to run the...

    Rifle Scopes Used glass options?

    I bought a Vortex Strike Eagle last year for my daughter's 6.5CM. 3-18×44, but I think it is discontinued. Great scope for $300ish.

    Rifle Scopes Used glass options?

    If you have anything like a 3-9 now, use it for 400 yards. Save your pennies until you can really step up in quality, like $800+. Heck, I shot my pronghorn last year at 450ish on 7x, and shot a coyote in March at 921 on 7x too.

    Rifle Scopes Recommendations On a 3-15 Under $1k

    "New 4-20 ZCO for a couple hundo more" than a used K318i? Show me where, and I will buy three......today. The OP is asking "under $1k". $3500 new price is no where in that ballpark, or even the same league. You are comparing Little League World Series to the MLB here.

    Rifle Scopes Hunting scope recommendation

    SWFA 3-15×42 for the price range is hard to beat. Is illumination needed? I have hunted for 30+ years. Only "NEEDED" illumination twice. But, without it, would not have two of my animals I took. But all my scopes except my Premier Heritage Light Tactical on my AR have illuminated reticles...

    Hunting & Fishing Berger 156gr EOL Elite Hunter Opinions

    I personally think a 6.5CM or .260 Rem is more suited to a 130-140ish bullet weight class. My daughter shoots a 6.5SLR (similar to a .260 Rem case with neck/shoulder of a 6.5x47L) w. 130 Berger OTM (or AR Hyb) @ 2900 from a 22" Proof. Last year, she took a pronghorn broadside in his bed at...
