hi and thanks for the answers so far, the gun is a break action TC prohunter, with Bullberry barrel. the 225 grain TSX can actually sit at half of the neck case itself, is when it touches, I tried it with the same 250 grain speer and same issue, it shoots fine jumping or seated at books specs...

Hi guys/gals, I received my new 35 Whelen barrel not long ago, the gun shoots great, I have been using Buffalo bore 225 TSX- average muzzle velocity is 2730, I broke out my reloading stuff after years of sitting and found my overall length is way over maximum by the books, wondering if that is...

Hello, I am kinda stumped, In my Remington 700 .308 WIN and shooting the 168 Barnes TSX. I bore sighted my Zeiss HD5 Conquest 3-15x42, then shot at 25 yards the scope seemed to track very well, I clean the Barrel and the next day moved to 100 yards and only needed to adjust 1 minute down and 1...

and it hits 500+ pounds harder at 150 yards than the .243 with a much bigger hole, -usually no blood trail

Update on the Zeiss 2x10x42, I returned to the store because of the "lighter" etching on the 5 and 6 of the rapid Z- however the other one they had available was the exact same, so I guess that's how it is on that model, the 3x15's Rapid Z was much bolder all the way down the scale.

I just picked one up, but have not spent very much time, I can tell you that it reads angles, and LOS that you want. It's very light and small package, red display, I spent a few minutes outside and picked up 653 yards from a tree, it seems fairly accurate, - I will test side by side vs my...

I was afraid of that, I'll try to get back down this weekend and compare, thanks for your response, The clarity and brightness is really good on the Zeiss,- at least to my eyes-

Thanks for all the suggestions, I went with the Swarovski 4x12x50 for the 35, and picked up the Zeiss HD5 2x10 rapid Z600 for another gun, the store was really busy and I felt rushed, my reticle in the Zeiss kinda fades though, like bold 4, but 5 and 6 are progressively etched lighter, it that...

Thank you gentlemen so far, I forgot about the Kahles, I'll look into that, tough decisions

I live in Utah, and can maybe help, but may I ask why are you coming in October if ya drew a LE tag?

Hello all, I have read a lot through these forums from various links, and it seems as there are quite a few of knowledgeable people out here, I have archery hunted my entire life with the exception of a couple rifle hunts, as far as shooting goes, I have handled big bores quite a bit and...
