Hello Shoalwater, I am running a 28' Rock Creek, with 72.5 grains of 4831sc, and the 215 Berger. Velocity is 2949, using my Kestral, it is spot on every time out to 1100 yards, after that my nemisis the WIND, gets me. I have shot the Bergers out to 2202 yards, using 88 moa, temp was 42 above...

Just rounded 3100 yesterday. The first 3000 were with 208 Amax's, and then Broz got me interested in the 215's. The barrel is a 28 inch Rock Creek Mtu. I Gun Juice it every 400 rounds when I clean it.

Ya same here, if someone is watching, NP-R2 Please.

Any word from Night Force when these scopes will hit the market. The timing for my new build might just work out like gangbusters

Currently a 5x22x56 NF with a NP R2. I would like that reticle in the ATACR. Hey Broz, those 215s you got me hooked on need only 67 moa at 1871 yards at 19 above and 5000 feet altitude. At 1197 yards I use 1.75 less moa then an 208 amax at the same speed.

I am not reterded, just a little simple. How big will my reticle be at 3000 yards.

Being an ex farm boy, my brothers and I would torture all our city cousins. Running shoes and work boots wouldnt get you that bad, but get someone to take their shoes and socks off and stand in the wet grass, PRICELESS. I would just take my muffs off for the couple of seconds it takes to...

I bought 250 Winchester brass 3 years ago and 3000 rounds later, out of a custom built 300 win mag. I fireformed them all, and then put them into to lots of 50 from the oringinal bags. I could get 13 to 14 firings, and then they would all start to crack just above the belt. Primer pockets were...

Yes and if you are in the United States, you should deal with Potamac Group. I was not trying to get you to try to import one from Canada, just helping my fellow country men.

I have a Terrapin and love it. I have owned a Leica 1200 and 1600, the Terrapin was not avaible to me at the time. The constant aiming circle of the Terrapin is my favorite feature, plus if you hold the F button for a full second it is illuminated. The glass is better then my 1200 and 1600, and...

Thank you Jeffvn and UncleB, that was thinking behind the question. The gun will be used to its full potential. I know the 65MOA that the 8x32 would be more than usefull, its just after the 1900, 2000 yard mark, that I was concerned about.

Advice needed please, or more of a second opinion. My custom 338 Lapua AI is almost done, and I am stuck deciding on a scope. Nightforce 5x22x56 gives me 100 MOA, 8x32 = 65MOA, or if money was to fall out of a tree, a Smchidt and Bender 12x50. What would you guys do?. Do I need all that MOA.

Cant argue with 2300 plus rounds on a 28" AMU/MTU Rock Creek barrel. it is 300 win, trued rem 700 action. 15 reloads on win brass and I had my first brass failure. If and when this barrel finally poops the bed it will be chambered in a 300 win again. I never run my barrel anything past warm to...

Thank you Elmerdeer, just spoke with John Lutes. He clarified that not a good idea to import from the United States, like I mentioned about my luck if I was to import one, mine would be the one to get stuck at Customs and I would be out $2000, so thanks again for putting me in the right...

I had a nice talk with Alina from Vetronics. She said that 6 plus weeks would be when she gets her next shipment. She said the response they are getting on the terripin is better than they expected, that is fine with me because my next rifle will be about 4 to 6 weeks after that. There is still...
