    Rifle Scopes Leupold reticle help.

    I mounted a VX3-I 6.5-20x scope on my 338-378 weatherby magnum for a hunt out west next month. The reticle is a varmint hunter reticle as seen below. I looked at the manual to get an idea of how many miles/MOA is between each elevation line. Unfortunately the manual is useless and basically...

    300 win mag advice/recommendations

    I am relatively new to reloading. I started about 1.5 years ago, and started with my 6.5 cm. I decided to start loading for my 300 win mag earlier this year in preparation for a hunt out west. I was hoping to build something in the 230 gr range. I ended up with ADG brass, redding competition...

    Rifle Scopes Anyone hunt with a vortex razor HD gen2?

    Thanks for all the feedback. The rifle is 9lbs, the vortex is about 3 3/4 lbs. plus bipod, rings etc. I’ll probably be around 13.5ish lbs. The Leopold and the Amg seem like awesome options. I was actually hoping for a high power razor hd gen iii, but vortex is really dragging its feet on...

    Initial impressions on vortex razor 4000. Need some advice.

    Just an update. I did not end up sending the range finder in, but i finally got to test its capabilities and was actually able to range a target at 4329 yards!! Was extremely surprised. I did it twice but was unable to repeat it after that.

    Range Report Heavy 6.5 cm report

    I will get you the COAL in the morning. I am able to push it to 2775 without pressure signs with h4350, I haven’t tried to go past that. But 2930 sounds fantastic. Unfortunately I just purchased an 8lb jug ?. I may try some of the powders you mentioned though.

    I was getting ~2770 out of my 26” barrel. 8” twist. Although my best groups and best ES/SD was for a load at ~2740 I shot them at steel out to 1054. They shot very well out or my rifle. Significantly better than the Eld-m.
