OH no doubt indeed it is and it is a fine looking rifle and you know it will shoot lights out and in a great cartridge.

It is more fun to have three though! Only having two can be boring! This is without considering rimfires, varmiters and DGR's I assume? Otherwise it is not fun at all!
Mike,
There are a couple of friends who are fighting for my M48. I have a enabler friend here too (Can you say like Fotis!!!) who gave them the idea I was going to sell it because I got the H.S. precision. Told them they can fight over it when I am DOA. Maybe I will have the wife bury it with me. There may be hunting in the after life
Russ

Tested my 160gr Speer SBT 7mm08 round that has a BC of .519 (not .515)on gallon jugs and is sighted in at 230yds zero, being -5.3" low at 300 which is my first drop dot and from 0-300yds the highest point is only 2.7" high and the rest of the bullets flight is perfectly matched to my dots out to 500yds, and with my 500yds dot I can actually go to 550yds. Yes, I like this, I am pumped for this season.
I used five rounds to hit four 1 gallon water jugs. 300, 400, 500 and 550. My friend and I went to his property at day light this morning since Church was not till 10:00am and he has a MS Power line on his property and we had no wind plus the trees block north or south winds because of the pine thickets that run along both sides of the power line. I he took his four wheeler and set up the four jugs when he reached the spot that my range finder said was the distance.
I sat in the same chair I put in my ground blind that has and arm rest I put the first dot right in the middle of the jug and hit the 300yds jug, the 400 jug was almost covered with the second dot but I hit it and the third dot covered the jug completely at 500yds but I got the left edge of it. I put it the same on the jug at 550 and the round looked like it hit just left and short of the jug, so I put the dot on the very top of the jug holding a little right of center and caught the left bottom edge. My friend and I both were surprised and I was pleased.
Had to order some more of the 160gr Speer SP BT bullets because I have five loaded rounds left of this bullet.

The extreme spread of 6 and deviation of 3 while matching my LR Duplex out to 500yds will make these perfect for long shot down gas lines on deer.
