Hey all, I inherited a few rifles from my late father and unfortunately due to living on opposite sides of the country I was not able to go hunting with him or learn the details about his setup.
What I have:
Rifle - Weatherby 30-378 MAG Mark V
Scope - Leupold VX-III 4.5-14x50mm Long Range with a Boone and Crockett Big Game Reticle.
Ammo - WBY 30-378 MAG 280 grain
I know my dad and he would only buy top of the line stuff, but this was also his newest rifle so I am not sure how long he had it or how much he actually used it.
I have taken it out to the range a couple times now and realized I really have no idea what I am doing in terms of sighting it in. My friend and I sort of sighted it in with 200 grain rounds at 100yds but after some reading and whatnot realized I should be sighting it in at 2-300yds.
If anyone has any advice on rounds or sighting this rifle in it would be much appreciated.
Cheers!
