Nosler M48

[Poor_choices]

I've been intrigued by the Nosler pistols since they came out and your groups sum up why! It looks like they typically shoot pretty well, and it's not a terrible price compared to the cost of building a custom center grip specialty pistol. I just wish they offered some larger chamberings, like any of the short mags. I'd be all over one of the Nosler pistols if it came in 33 Nosler.

How are you shooting the short eye relief scopes? You have to be creeping up pretty close.

It takes a little practice, but it works well with the right setup. A heavy gun and/or a good muzzle brake make a big difference.

My LGS has one of these Nosler pistols in 6.5 Creed and I stare at it wondering if it shoots $1,600 worth. Looks like they do.

I have one in 6.5 CM as well and it shoots equally well. Took an antelope last year with it @ 260yds.

The 308 now wears a Vortex 3 x 12 and it has generous eye relief. More than any other rifle scope I currently have and it wears an Area 419 muzzle break which is very effective. No worries about it popping me in the noggin.

All my pistol shooting is with a Contender now. Close up and personal. .357 and .41 mag. Also have a12 inch.223 that loves 52 Hammer Hunters. Last thing I need is another expensive gun. Wife may decide a divorce is cheaper.

Buy the gun. You can always find a new wife.

Well, there is that, but keep in mind that, "Old Wives," are quite expensive. Would be much better to get the current wife involved in shooting so she is equally interested in new guns and ammo. Using the tact, "It is something we can do together," can work, with the caveat being that there will probably no longer be deer camp with the boys, as well as you might have to spend a night at the Opera with her in exchange. Trust me, it's worth it and a lot cheaper than a divorce.

Maybe I should show you a picture of myself now, 73 year old fat guy with a house full of guns and a stupid cat. I'm A real catch. I'll keep the one I've trained to not look in the cabinet for a new contender barrel. Besides, she is the one who has a rich mother.

Yeah if they've been around that long it's tough to get rid of them. Like an old truck seat they're all broken in and comfortable.

Got the 6.5 CM on Gunbroker, the 308 came from Midway USA. I'm thinking of having the CM rebarreled to 243 Winchester. I'm sorta over the 6.5 craze. Back when I hunted with a rifle the 243W was all I used 95% of the time, it never failed me. Shots from 30 to 350 plus on deer and always got complete penetration with a good bullet.

You won't be disappointed if you get an M48. Finding one you want will be the issue. Midway USA has one in stock, a 6mm CM.
