How many "everythings" is that?

I can't wrap my head around waiting 5-7yrs between tags and then using equipment I didn't take the time to learn to take full advantage of???

While on the other hand, some of us can't wrap our heads around the dedication other guys put into rifles, scopes, ballistics, hitting the range. We get passionate with other things. I think a guy can only be super-into so many things at once.

I'm just glad I have some of you super into it experts to assist me when I do need advice/guidance.

A shore fisherman can be just as in love with fishing as the big sparkly guys - but he can't wrap his head around spending $90K on a fishing boat.

Also - Captain is looking NOW for ammo to sling.

A lot of guys will look around for a box the night before they head west. lol
Compared to some guys, Ahab is overprepping.

While I HATE MPBR, if one is going to shun the LRF and turrets/holdover reticles, MPBR does then hold some merit.

That 127LRX in the 6.5-300Wby vs. say a 100gn .257 projectile @ 3300 in the 25-06 nets a whopping 25-30yds extra MPBR.

Congratulations??

sprechen zie what what? I almost always have to look up those acronyms you rifle enthusiasts use intuitively, then re-read everything over again.

I have the turret system on my Leo VX-6 I will use with a LRF “IF” Time allows. For the record.

I knew of two kegs of h4350 and varget in the last week. I don’t know if it’s available yet but I can check.

So, what is the good or the bad with Leupold's turret system with their VX6? Really curious.

Not where I'd like to be

I have two of these.
The good: They seem to work well. They track well out past 1000 yards, and return to zero.
The less good: They are more of a "hunting" turret, and not a true "tactical" turret. For example, there's no way to set the zero stop below zero, no revolution indicator, etc.
The bad: The little turret lock buttons do work, but not as well as I'd like. I have trouble with the windage turret getting bumped. However, I shoot left handed and carry the rifle on my left side with that turret rubbing against my coat and pack, so that may not be a problem for others.

Anybody have 240 grain TC "Cheap Shots" lead bullets they want to get rid of?

I don't really don't want to sight in and practice using the fancy hunting bullets (over a buck a round).

If you go through Jamestown let me know a day ahead of time. I can cast you a few with about a 10, 12, or 14 hardness that should expand at mz velocities.

I know a guy who has some reloading items he's looking to get rid of. If anyone is interested send me a PM and I can get you his contact info. Couldn't tell you what all is there.

Looking for 308 165gr Hornady GMX, or 168 Barnes TTSX. Or other quality 165gr hunting round.

2 pounds Winchester 6.5 StaBall powder. Lots of shooters use in 6.5 Creedmoor.

Trade for powder I can use. I thought it would be a good powder for a 6.5x284 or 260.
