NICE and a SERIOUS optic. With all that who need a 50 cal. to reach out?

Thanks. As I get older my eye sight gets worse.

Nice looking set-up. How's the accuracy with YOUR rifle?

I have the same gun in a McMillan A-5 and I'm not too happy with its performance.

I will let you know once I get it to the range. I am hoping to make it there Sunday. What bullet are you using?

What bullet are you going to use?

Some of the new Berger .30cals look very good, especially the 155gr Hybrid. 0.48 BC and I bet you could get it moving in the 2900 range...

 

[Grumpy41]

I have used 175 SMK and 178 Amax with various grains of Varget.

Unfortunately I have to use MG to shoot until Sanners Lake decides to re-open the range to test and chrono other loads. So it takes MUCH LONGER to figure things out.

I like it. Look at that optic! Are you trying to shoot the man in the moon?

Most of the front part in the sun shade.

Also, what is it weighing in at?
A good bit lighter than your odd-6 I'm sure...

I will have to pop it on the scale. I was checking it out off hand and it was much easier to hold steady than the beast .06.

Sweet rifle!

 

[llkoolkeg]

Damn...that's a nice rifle and it looks amazingly compact for it's likely operating range. I sure hope you still have one of those kick-a$$ Impact Data Books handy for sight-in day at the range!

 

[Semper Noctem]

What, no suppressor?

 

[herr.baer]

What, no suppressor?

That is on my list of toys but my budget is only so much so I have to start saving my pennies.

Looking like a sweet rig!
