Haven’t had to adjust zero since mounting this scope about three years ago!

MightyBoosh - nothing like a bit of DIY sticks had a similar setup for a while until my string broke (of course happened with a stag in the sight) so I said I take the jump and buy a pair never looked back.

Mighty Duck - thanks for clarifying. And thanks for the picture of your ball bags. Similar to sand bags I use for setting gun nice light alternative for bringing out in the field.

ZQLewis - 700 is a good rifle great action had one in 25-06. How do you find Nikon monarch was thinking of buying a .308 and dressing it up pretty? I have a Nikon spotting scope and rangefinder and find it’s good glass. With 225gr I’d say they wouldn’t make it far.

JoshC - nice looking rifle what magnification is the Zeiss scope? I find after burning the barrel in and I’ve set in the sights and haven’t needed to adjust. Looking guys that handloading is legal unfortunately it’s illegal in Ireland but doesn’t stop me making diy slugs for the shotgun.

dogmatix - FUDD’S? Nice rifles AR is a nice setup. What’s the stock on the Finnlight is it custom? What are you firing through your .270?

@JONAS!

Apologies, FUDD is as being an Elmer Fudd.



Known for only using firearms for hunting purposes and usually a bolt action rifle or breakopen shotgun.
Has no interest in any type of target or competition shooting and doesn’t believe anyone else needs to own semi auto rifles or pistols.

Would gladly see those banned as long as it didn’t impact on his hunting and ability to own his bolt action.

It’s the factory standard 75 Finnlight stock, getting a bit beaten up now.
I shoot 150gn Hornady SST handloads through that and Sierra 65gn Gameking and 69gn Matchking handloads through the Sako .223.
The 6.5 Grendel shoots 123gn Hornady SSTs roll your owns.
