Had some time to finalize my reload. I’m pretty much done and just stick to this recipe.Don’t wanna waste anymore powders. Seems like no matter what reloads I throw at this ax, it just shoots dead nuts anyways.Time to stretch it.

Nice shootin'

Any pressure signs with that load?
 
Yup, all the answers are right. Illumination knob forces the rear ring forward. Normally I'd have the ring centered if not slightly more rear of center on normal scopes. No issues with brass at all.

The atlas is just the 2 screw version. Sounds stupid but it keeps the bipod up the highest and I don't have a need for a QD.

3-20 is a fantastic scope... but the 3-12x50 is still my standard everything else is measured to.
 
Dumb poor people do that as well as rich people who don’t give a crap (because they don’t have to care/$$$ to 🔥).

There is a saying that states the only people who can afford to buy cheap stuff are rich people.

Because when the cheap item inevitably soon breaks, it’s no big deal to rich folks. Toss it and buy another.

A few caveats:
  1. the truth of this saying hinges upon the meaning of the word “afford”
  2. as mentioned, poor dumb people exist
  3. this saying has little to do with tightwads who look for deals on authentic AI mags
There is another saying that goes like

"I am not rich enough to buy cheap equipment"

Nice shooting. That velocity seems a little high?

Nah.. 2900 fps and up is key with the #2156. Is completely different design from the old #2155. Those Palma guys get it going to 3000 fps and up, though with a 30” stick. Key for the 2156 is, these bullet likes to jump. Mines is 8 thou off lands. Best to go with .308 cases with srp pockets ( there’s lots of info on this as to why ). And I don’t know if it makes a difference, but I like to use srp magnum primer for this. And I went with 3 thou of neck tension. With a kiss of taper crimp. Using Reddings taper crimp die.
 
Buddly, I have 4 or 5 scopes up to $800, 28 years in the concrete business, 200 Bow kills, can bench 275… that dude is hilarious.. we need him back 🤣🤣💴
