I just put a 2.5-8 on my ‘new to me’ 308, and at 8x I shot groups equal to and better than the groups I shot with the 4-20 I had on the heavyweight 5R .308. The new rifle was harder to shoot as its...

Yeah Woody I have watched a bit of Randy’s stuff and I get it. His stuff is mostly really good, bearing in mind he’s in the US and it’s all about product endorsement..... I like that he’s a public...
So here I go. Committed to the course of action, my long range rifle is gone, replaced with a Remy 700 Stainless ADL in .308.

I recently bought a new Leupold VX3i 1.5-5x20 for my little Model 7, and I...
