Odin Ascends

[orkan]

Sometimes you just need to stomp on something... HARD. That is why I have Odin. Odin is my Desert Tech HTI. When you press the trigger on a 352gr bullet with a G7 BC of .410 from a TS Customs 34" 375CT barrel, anything on the receiving end had better be heavily anchored.

I've owned several ELR rifles over the years. In my mind, nothing else on the market compares to the ELR capability of a DT HTI with TS Customs conversion.

3 shots at 300yds. 1/3MOA. They stomped the target hard. The impact bent the free-swinging 3/8" AR500 plate and took some chunks out of it. Two of the 3 landed within 1/3 of an inch of each other. The other fell right slightly. These were shots 5, 6, and 7 from this barrel. I'm going to be having fun with this, yes I am.

With my factory DT barrel, I was able to shoot these plates at this distance without damaging them. I'm getting another 150fps from this barrel, and it shows! The crops are in around here, so I don't have any far steel out... but soon I'll have to find some distance.

I don't know your twist, altitude or scope height but it's also about 17 moa or less to a grand !! With a 225 yd zero

Please don't zero that thing at 100.

Please don't zero that thing at 100.

Why not? I have 25 mils of elevation available on my turret and another 8+ available on the reticle. That will take me out past 2400yds. I was getting 1/2moa groups and a little better at 100 today, so everything is fine for zero there. My previous barrel would barely hold 2" at 100yds, yet would shoot sub-moa at distance. That was annoying. This barrel doesn't seem to be doing that.

I zero everything else at 100, and with this shooting like it is, I see no reason not to do that with this one too.

Rarely am I truly jealous or covetous of another man's property.

This is one of those rare occasions.

What a sweet rig.gun)

All I can say is WOW !

And yes, Travis at TS does great work.
