[QUOTE="1shot1yote, post: 726135, member: 53661"] Gunsmith- I did all my load work up with a new Redfield Revenge in 4-12. Then when I could afford the Vortex I put the Redfield on my .270 So far I like it, I haven't shot it a whole lot but it seems to be repeatable. Took it on an elk hunting trip in October. Didn't get a shot at an elk but I shot a rock at 925yds first shot. I held a little too much wind so I was probably 4'' left of where I wanted to hit. Would have been a dead elk had I been shooting at one. As far as the barrel goes I'm not sure how long it will be on there. I'm not getting the velocity I would like out of it, only 2870 fps. I believe a 27'' barrel would get me much closer to the 3000 fps mark. Sorry it took me a couple days to get back to you. Justin [/QUOTE]
