    Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x40

    I´ve got mine 4200 now. It has been tried out. I got only 1 thing to say about it.. I totally LOVED IT. Could see the holes made by .222 in the target at 300 meters. I am so far 100% saitisfied.

    First experience...

    Nice site dave. I was not impressed by your shots, and I tought I did quite good my self - until I saw the size comparison picture .. damm... now I´m impressed. The range photo really scared me... I still suck... [ 03-24-2003: Message edited by: Dachs ]

    First experience...

    I tried out my Sauer 202 Euro on a 300 meter range. Tought of you guys when I tried to punch some holes in the paper... I did not use bench - but I simulated any possible hunting situation I may encounter. OK... an moose would drop dead. Roedeer would live dangerously, and fox would laugh at me...

    A MAX for hunting?

    A MAX for hunting?

    Brent and Matt. I´ll stand by that line unless the situation or the game makes it impossible to get any closer. The idea of safe shooting is to get as close as possible. If you choose to shoot at long range just for fun - it is marksmanship - NOT hunting. You does not HUNT the game - you just...

    A MAX for hunting?

    I live in Norway. We dont have any long range shootingranges. If we have I would not know where. We have alot of 100 m/200/300 meter shootingranges. Hunters do they training on 100 meters. Unfortunately we had an conviction in Norwegian Supreme Court couple of months ago - wich strikes...

    A MAX for hunting?

    jup... heres the troll again.. I´ll try to the best of my ability to explain what I mean. I somewhat stand corrected In my country this is not an option. It is an offence to use bullets design for paper on Big game. There is also an offence to even try LR-hunting - UNLESS you hit...

    A MAX for hunting?

    Anybody telling you to use a-max for animals is not a hunter. Every hunter with a minimum of brain knows that a-max is not ment to be used on animals. I´m quite shocked over the lack of hunting ability among those kind of people. It´s not all about hitting the target. It is a MUST to know what...

    What range is these cal. good fore?

    This was very informative Dave. I do understand a bit more, but dam I got a lot to learn. I my country long range hunting qualifies to loose your right to hunt and you´ll probably loose all your weapons as well - since you´ll no longer have a need for them. Max range I´ve ever shot is 200 yards...

    What range is these cal. good fore?

    I am a reloader, and all my weapons go 20 mm or less at 100 yards. Thats not benchrest, but I´m interested in whats the cal. good for if we consider the accuracy to be very good.

    What range is these cal. good fore?

    Hi.. know just about nothing about long range hunting. I wonder what range my cal´s can be used for. I got: .222 6,5x55 SwedishMauser 375 H&H Mag What is the acceptable hunting range for these calibers? What would you consider is the max range? Consider use of a bullet that are good and a...

    Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x40

    REM 700.. very interesting. You´re the first one with a bad story, but is this first hand info, or is it your buddys words? Anyway, I cant believe that a scope in the amount of $3-400 would trouly satisfy me, but the the many great stories made me order it. Looking forward to see if this will...

    Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x40

    Strange... I´ve only heard that it is a very good scope. According to other scopes there is always somebody that got something negative to add. Elite 4200 must be the absolute greatest scope compared to others matching the price. How come? Bushnell is not known to produce state-of-the-art...

    Bushnell Elite 4200 6-24x40

    I´ve learned from other sites that this scope is very good. I do want to heare from you who is familiar with long range shooting. This will mostly be used for daylight hunting with a .222 rem. Later I will put this one a 22-250 when I can afford one.
