    James Eagleman tests the Athlon Cronus scope, tall target test and compared to NFNX8 and Trijicon 10 mile.

    Hey Butterball. Earlier this week I posted about an alternative 7mm bullet to the ones the OP posted. It was late in the thread, no harm was meant. Then you jumped my case about hijacking the thread. So I came here wanting to learn about Athlon, Nightforce and Tenmile scopes. Next thing I know...

    twist rate for 6.5 06

    8 twisted Hart on a 6.5-06. Changed to an 8 twist Benchmark on a 6.5-284. 8 twist bartlein on a 6.5x47. 8 twist light palma on a 6.5x47 Hawk Hill, 8 twist #2 Hawk Hill on a 6.5 creedmoor. They all can shoot 130-156 bullets fine. Not saying a 7 twist or a 9 twist won't, but seems like an easy...

    Ok which bullet?

    Oh, in that case I'd use my 6.5 stuff with 140 bergers.

    Ok which bullet?

    I'd look at a heavy Berger to try next.

    Ok which bullet?

    7mm would be a 180 Scenar for me. Is it ok to go off topic on page 4?

    What Scope for 22LR Training?

    Could you note where the Zeiss is zeroed for your centerfire and just mount it using same rings on your 22 during training season? May work or may be a pain. Seems like it'd be nice to use the same scope for both.

    22 Creedmoor?

    Ton of data on snipershide in the reloading section. Using H4350 and 88 ELD in one. Pretty neat round.

    If you could only have 3 long guns, which would you choose?

    At 4 years old, I may have replied already. 30-06, 12 gauge, 223 fast twist.

    Lefty Options

    Eurooptic just had a wood stocked Tikka T3 in 6.5 swede. Sold out quick in lefty. Look pretty nice though. Great do it all rig.

    Lefty Options

    I'd probably have to buy a Tikka in a 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5 PRC. Shoot it a bit, then decide if it was good enough or if it needed a McMillan to fit you better. After 30 years of right handed shooting, eye infection caused me to switch about 10 years ago. Takes a bit but you'll get it dialed in...

    Colorado Record Rams

    Just incredible. 21 days on the hunt, held off lesser rams along the way. That's a hunt that was done very well. And a genetic freak of a ram.

    muzzle brake sound

    People seem to brake everything from 223 to as big as you can go. Was just curious. Should be a nice handy woods rig.

    muzzle brake sound

    Curious what rifle and cartridge you are using there in the PA woods that needs a brake?

    Nightforce Decisions

    Nightforce scopes keep replacing lesser brands on my rigs. Sure you will like whatever you end up with.
