Boring regularity....

Anonymous · Jul 28, 2012

Took the Nosler M48 Sporter out to get ready for hunting season. As much as I like messing with a bunch of different rifles, the Nosler with 180gr Trophy Grade ammo :grin: gets the nod when something needs to die.

Fired 2 shot at 150yds.... .5" apart.

Cool barrel

Adjust scope...fired 2 more .6" apart with the bull between them.

Cool barrel

Fired one shot.... .25" to the left of the bull.

Ready to hunt....5 shots.

I really enjoy this rifle and ammo combo...no tinkering, no fussing. Just load it and shoot stuff.

I did replace the scope last year with a Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40...another boringly reliable piece of equipment so far.

Nice. It is great when they work so well. What did you have on the rifle before the Zeiss?

Boring is good. Like my 160 load in my 280AI. It just makes a guy feel good.

I originally had a Leupold fixed 4x....loved it. Hunted with it two seasons. Popped the gas seal in a mean tumble down a scree chute mid season.

Replaced it with a Leupold 6x (only thing available locally at the time)...loved it. Moved it to a varmint rifle after the second season.

Found a smoking deal on a Zeiss, thought I'd try it.... like it so far after one season. Although I tended to shoot everything on 6x, making the variable sort of a non-issue.
