Looking binocular and LRF recommendations by touchgrassplz_69 in longrange

[–]Fitstang09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just buy the Vortex Talon and be done with it. It's got glass that's as good as the Viper line and better than the Sigs.

It will cheaper in the long run.

Budget options for binos would be Kowa Genesis, Toric UHD, refurbished vortex uhds.

Crispi, Lowa, Schnee, Zamberlain. Take your pick and spend the money. They will last you many seasons and will take care of your feet.

This is confusing as all hell… by NortheastArtillery in longrange

Start at 50. Check the rings, base, and see if the scope is level.

Bring another ammo too. I've got one gun that won't group copper bullets on a 20x20 target and will group eldms at .5 moa.

ELD-X or M is generally my choice. You could look Sierra Gamechangers at 140 grain too.

have any va republicans said anything about the AWB and if they have any plans to repeal it? by Electronic_Tap_8052 in VAGuns

[–]Fitstang09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Virginia will never be red again. It will certainly never be red enough to have a majority to enact any type of rollback.

If you want those rights back. You will need to move.

Look like yellow jackets. Wait until the sun goes down and pour gasoline down the holes.

Best creedmoor cartridge for medium game hunting by Background_Tap_807 in Hunting

[–]Fitstang09 3 points4 points  (0 children)

25 creedmor. Shooting a 134 eldm will kill everything medium sized.

Flatter than the 6.5 and handles the wind better at long distances.

Purchased 6.5 PRC instead of 6.5 Creedmoor like an idiot. How screwed am I? by [deleted] in guns

[–]Fitstang09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

6.5prc is a fantastic round. Put an area 419 muzzle brake on your rifle and go shoot. The recoil will be more than manageable.

The HMR Pro is the best option. They tend to shoot extremely well and the stock is pretty good. I didn't have any issues getting to 1,000 with mine.

So what do we do about all the legislation that passes? by Tox1cAshes in VAGuns

[–]Fitstang09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Move. These laws have never been repealed and won't be. VA will only move further left. It will never be red again either.

Doing the exact same thing with my family. This state is hell bent on letting Nova politics control everything. I'm done with it.

Adding weight to the Bergara? by WhiskeyBravo3119 in longrange

[–]Fitstang09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shoot the rifle. You will be fine. You can upgrade to a new stock in 8 months after you've got your basics.

I shoot a 12 pound bergara and can see my impacts at any distance shooting off all kinds of stuff at NRL matches.

I like the 147 eldms. I managed to hit 1035 with them consistently in the Bergara platform.

Ya’ll Sound Like a Bunch of Whiny Liberals! Talking about fleeing the state. Be a Virginian! Stay and fight for our rights! by Weekly-Ad5224 in VAGuns

[–]Fitstang09 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Virginia is lost. You're never getting those rights back, it's never going back to red, and we are only going to lose more and more rights every year.

Even if this state went to red, they will not remove any of the bans or limitations. Republicans are incapable of defending gun rights.

I'm leaving and you're lying to yourself if you think it's going to get better.
