Whitetail doe, 821 yards.

That's what I got (750°), I've been practicing with hornady brass I'm willing to ruin. I still don't have the courage to try my lapua brass 😆

Got my V3 chrono in today thanks to @jsmitt6 Factory 140 eldm match ran avg. Of 2766 (compared to 2603 factory barrel) I will post how the hand loads are doing in the near future.

An update on my limited experience with PBB. With only 40 or so shots down the tube, the barrel cleans up quickly with little effort. Shot multiple 5 round groups right at .5 with berger 130 otm factory ammo, .75 with the 140 vld flavor of berger ammo and just under a minute with factory hornady...

Happy Easter to all my fellow shooters! I pray that we recognize God working in our lives, on the mountain top or in the valleys throughout this unpredictable life - He is always right there, calling for us

My late brothers Marlin 336 Lc in 30-30 that he shot so much a bullet will fit down the past the crown. I don't shoot it, saving it for my oldest daughter when she gets old enough. Bought in 1957 by my Grandfather, passed down to my father, to my oldest brother, to my late brother, myself and...

Or should the difference (the 3%)be subtracted or added to m.o.a. then divided per click? I know I am over thinking this... someone smarter than me will clear this up

In theory & If you are off 3% and I figgered this right, your input should either be .25389... if 3% shy or .26960 if in excess. Minute per click (4) is .26175

This is in the subsection "scope" please note the ability to adjust (vert. Correction, moa) in Strelok app

Strelok does allow you to input your true elevation and windage adjustments

Fixing on spinning on a Pbb for my tikka and if it shoots as good as this one I may have a 6.5 cm tikka take off for sale.

I don't shy away from close range or quartering shot opportunities. Although I have never been in the habit hard quartering shots even with hunting bullets. I find I get an exit until 300 yards or so on whitetails. I use both types but 95% time I'm shooting ELDM for all calibers

PBB started on my barrel about a week ago. I'll report back on I am able to spin it on and take her out. 6.5 creedmoor with .160 freebore Fixed shoulder .900 contour Polished stainless 27" with 5/8 - 24 threaded & lapped
