+1 on this if the demo sale is still on the S&Bs. glass is superb.

The lower end Bushnells are not so good. The Top Tier are really good IMHO. I own many scopes, with them, you basically get what you pay for

Unbeatable combination of price, quality & warranty. the Strike Eagle 1-6x24 riflescope with AR-BDC reticle. I've had my best results with a purposefully built AR for accuracy Geissele match trigger, match grade ammo (77gr SMK - Federal and/or Hornady)

The Kowa weight and size is ideal you just don’t give up much to it other then fov and a few mins at first/last light

Both scope are great and you won't go wrong with either but the Mk5 has the advantage of weight.

Good Ol Vectronics plrf

They are a good barrel. All of the ones I have shoot very well. Personally, I'd rank them better than a factory barrel, but not quite to the level of a Kreiger et al.

For low ring Warne rings is just as good.

I really prefer to not shoot shoulders because it ruins meat Midway up behind the front shoulder That’s my go to shot placement 6.5 PRC using a 143 gr ELDX bullet.

When I was 17 we went hunting on a friend's farm in western KY. I was hunting on the edge of a field and had a HUGE buck walk out right behind me about 10 yards away. Our friend had a buck mounted in his house that had scored 189" and this deer was bigger than that The light is beginning to fade...

I confess to having owned a Savage 99 at one time But BLR by Browning served me well. I will always like my lever action

If considering longer range shot to 600 yards eventually I would go the 6.5cm

I have never eaten a 400 lb boar but the sows are very edible.

I had 225gr that we shot 2 different elk with and both just blew up on the entrance side of the shoulder blade. They were shot at 100 yds and 500 yds. I'd go Barnes triple shock or step up for the A frame in either 225 or 250.

Most of the pigs I shoot get the Hornady Q-tip.
