    6GT...Who here has one or more?

    Take it as luck. I’ve seen a number of tack drivers, plus my fair share of dogs. You will get more of a no spin zone here. The distance stuff, it’s just a matter of having someone that knows what they’re doing, help you, and then the majority of the mystery will be taken away. Wind and...

    16" vs 24" .308 Win Velocity...

    I am not so much about efficiency, but about a performance level I want out of of project the majority of the time. Sometimes, I want a specific cartridge, just because I want that cartridge :) In 308 Winchester I'm weird....I have two specialty pistols: A 15.75" single-shot Remington XP-100...

    16" vs 24" .308 Win Velocity...

    Most definitely. I literally was talking about the same cartridge, the same powder, the same brass, the same load, the same brand of bullet, the same weight of bullet. Everything being the same except barrel length.

    Why No Love for The .308 Winchester

    Fouling with mono's is partially dependent on how the mono is made, and the other part of that is is the quality of your barrel. Generally speaking, if you look through a bore scope of a custom barrel versus a factory barrel you will usually notice a distinct difference.

    Well, sometimes we paint a red dot 🔴 on our targets. So, maybe we do have a bullseye at times😇 Derrick shooting my Speedy 6mm Creedmoor XP-100.

    Why No Love for The .308 Winchester

    Bullet choices are important. Shot placement is EPIC! Many hunters say, “I made a good shot,” when in reality they did not. I have found this to be sadly true. Most hunters do not do an autopsy and actually confirm where the bullet went, what it hit. They just assume they made a good...

    Advice for someone starting out

    On steel there is no bullseye. Depending on how I am holding on the target, my crosshair is not always at the center of the target, whether I am shooting on paper or steel. Benchrest shooting on paper close or 1K requires different glass (High Magnification). Benchrest shooting has...

    Have him get some Hornady TAP 168 ELD-M's. They work great on tissue. This was TAP with the 168 A-Max at 350 yards about 12 years ago. 14" 308 Winchester pistol.

    Advice for someone starting out

    I don’t have a problem with first focal plane reticles at 500 yards or at 1000 yards on steel or pd’s. If, I’m doing 1000 yard bench rest or F class then I for sure will be using a reticle in the second focal plane, and the Turrets will probably be 1/8 minute of angle clicks. Reticle...

    240 grain XTP or a 240 grain Sierra Jacketed Hollow Point will kill WT’s. So will a lot of other bullets…

    Advice for someone starting out

    MOA is great. For hunting specifically, a regular plex reticle (SFP) with a good MOA Turret or a Ballistic turret will work great. IF you want to use the reticle for shot correction or holdovers or hold offs, go with a reticle in the FFP/First Focal Plane. If going with a FFP reticle, make sure...

    Even for your daughter, I would encourage you to get the MOA turrets (Listed in 1/4 MOA increments/Lines?) for that Swaro scope. Budget for new scope?

    Advice for someone starting out

    "Friends don't let friends count clicks" 😇 :) Counting clicks is not good-There are better ways Either get a ballistic turret like I posted above for your scope...See if Kenton makes one for yours. Get a MOA turret cap (If you can)...OR...Get a different scope
