[QUOTE="Wilderness Blacktail, post: 2847370, member: 27906"] So for those of you who have spent time shootin light/UL rifles at range where did you find the limits in rifle weight/caliber/bullet grain/cartridge/speed/magnification for spotting your own hits at say 5-800yds? I been shooting semi custom Tikka super light in 284 (same profile and 22" not fluted) 150gr at 2850fps and with the factory stock i could spot most every shot at 8X. Now ive replaced the stock with a carbon and need to drop to 4X to see the same and am getting closer at 6X. I did change the scope so that could contribute. Im a couple range sessions from either yanking the barrel and going back to 6.5mm or dropping bullet to 140 gr. [/QUOTE]
