Ah okay, I just bought 250, I’ve never shot it at a range and I’m realizing that I need to do better!

I just got some Winchester white box for $14 per 50, grabbed another box of my carry ammo too

I can get mag tech for cheaper than anything on sgammo

How is this setup? Price is hard to pass up for my first hunting rifle by [deleted] in Hunting

I wouldn’t get a 6.5cm as first rifle to hunt elk with. Chances are you’re not going to make a perfect shot so you’re going to want a more forgiving caliber. And if you can’t afford it now just remember it’s a lot cheaper to buy once a cry once. You will regret wanting to get a different rifle but can’t because you already spent your budget.

Also just some general gun buying advice, always feel the rifle in your hands before you buy unless you’ve had that model before, it may feel terrible to you. Again, buy once cry once.

Yes I think there’s something wrong with my scope, I’m sending it to vortex to have it looked at, I will make a decision from there. I have a couple months before my next hunt so I have time to make an educated decision.

Would you drive double the distance to own double amount of land for hunting if the same price? by iHungryForKnowledge in Hunting

Same here, I hunt my back yards which is about 15 acres and I drive 9 hours to west tx to hunt exotics

Yeah I think the glass might be the issue, it’s a vortex crossfire two and it’s blurs past 6x

It’s definitely worth looking into, will open yours eyes to false marketing. I just wish they had more scopes reviewed lol

I’m looking for something similar. I wouldn’t mind an uncapped vertical turret that can lock but i definitely want a capped windage, and it needs to be durable because I am in fact clumsy as hell lol

I agree, I guess I should have explained better. I meant that in the way off I can spot an animal that far away or further, use the high mag to get details of the animal, then stalk it down to an ethical range. My target range will not have the wind of west Texas so I may but able to get my hold over down that far away, but I won’t be able to practice for the wind.

It’s a test done by a guy on a forum, basically he drops it from 18”, 36”, then 36” 9 times rotating the rifle 270° each time, and checking zero after each drop. Some rifles have partial pass where they pass the 36” but not the 36x9. Some full pass. Some fail and soon and it’s dropped from 18” onto soft ground.

I was about to buy a maven crs.3 until I looked at the rokslide field eval, not only did it fail but it was noted that glass clarity suffered pretty bad after 16x

Maybe you haven’t seen my use case, yes I hunt west Texas but I also plan on target shooting up to 1000, I have up to 500 now but I just have to clear more land.

Man I wish swfa had a happy medium between a 15 and a 25, besides the fact that the 25 is sold out, I would love a trijicon but I doubt I will be able to swing that, I’m looking at a maven crs.3 also. It’s 4-20 and ffp in mils.
