    I thought I would post my findings to date on this projectile as there is minimal information on the Internet about it and a lot of it is very conflicting. I haven't previously used the Lrab and...

    I like the "tent pitch" with my siltarp, stands up to a tonne of wind and is nice and comfortable and dry and really easy to setup 167661 167662 https://youtu.be/yMAtpWQdVbY

    I have a 2-10 VX5HD firedot on my 6.5x55 10x is plenty at 500yds and the advantage of the 2-10 is it's smaller and lighter. I like the 2x, with firedot on I can just keep both eyes open which I...

    Leupold did make the older non-HD VX6 2-12 with a CDS ZL2 turret; my 308 currently wears one (firedot with windplex). It is a very good scope and I like that it’s a bit shorter and less bulky than...

    Southerner223 just one thing to remember for the older VX6 2-12x42 if you do go for it - it uses the older version of the CDS turret which is nowhere near as good as the CDS ZL2 turret on the HD...

    I run a 18" Tikka .260, was thinking the same as you when I was looking. I liked the 2-10 for the same reason as you - it has that lower power 2 vs the 3 of the 3-15. In the end I got swayed on 3-15...

    The 80 ELD-M works on big bull tahr, too. Shot 2 bulls, botg in the shoulder/lungs at about 60m, both ran a few metres then died, one bullet under the skin on the off side, the other must have hit...

    I wouldn't worry about it, happens with some dies, and not others, its negligible and purely cosmetic. Load some up, go shoot some shit, problem gone.

    Greetings Southerner223, Looks like a die problem to me. Try a different die. Are you cleaning the outside of the cases, especially the necks, before you size. If not this could be you problem. I...

    Just buy a 7mm remmag standard 24" barrell cut 6" off throw an over barrel supressor on it and you will have a bushpig capable of shooting 7-800 yds if required. Better BC's in 7mm as others have said
