I shoot bergers. For a vld I start at .010 and go from .010-.060 in .010 increment. If I have the need to get surgical ill adjust .005 from there but usually .010 increments is good. Like someone already said, I have had good luck with .010 increments and you can really see groups open and close...

I don't understand how an 8.5 limits you....with the exception of a 195 you can run pretty much any berger heavy even at seas level and with conservative speeds like OP just said. Also, didn't berger change the recommended twist rate for 195s to a 9? I have little experience with the 195 and...

Agreed! It's so funny how everyone has different experiences than others. For some, bergers are lights out. For some, Hornady are lights out. The only projectiles I've seen that have consistently given poor results are coppers. Not always poor but consistently sub par for almist everyone I...

Tagging in on the performance of this scope as well? Wondering how it fits next to the mark 5s?

Now now, everyone knows energy is irrelevant so dont go confusing the OP with all this bullet energy dump mumbo-jumbo. 😁😁😁😁😁😁 But seriously, some good info offered so far in this thread 👍

Did you find what you needed?

I snoozed and loosed...😔 Good deal!

I commend you sir. That is the dream many think is unobtainable. For most it is because of obligations but life is a design and somewhere in there can be the goal you have attained. Imagine being so satisfied with your hunting opportunities that you never had to go out of state! Living in Alaska...

I don't know the specifics of state vs federal public lands in OK but in most of the states I've been/hunted/worked the last agency you want "managing lands" is the state. Typically their budgets can't manage the lands they already own and acquiring more lands just puts quality management even...

Not to hijack but I seem to recall calling garmin to ask if AB can be purchased and uploaded on one of their watches that didn't have it and they told me it's not possible to do that. Feel free to PM. Sorry OP for the derail. As far as the optics in question I have been considering the revic...

I'm not sure what constitutes "these days" but I have a sendero that I bought new in 2014 and it is a one hole barrel. Has a jeweled bolt, looks slick and is dang good shooting factory rifle that shoots every bit as good as my customs. Just sayin.....

Omg...bump for one bad *** pistol!

If this isn't proof enough of hornadys target audience with the PRC line than I don't know what is hahah. Hes on your team PRC fan boys 😁😁😁😁

So very sad to hear of your loss. It's a tough one to lose the matriarch. I think of my grandma's who have passed on. They were (like yours) literally the sweetest women I will have ever known, the very people who gave us the glue that holds the family together. May your grandma rest easy, for...
