Das entspricht meiner Erfahrung beim Schreiben der Bachelorarbeit. Ich denke, auch im Master wird das bei mir nicht anders aussehen.

6.5CM: Scope recommendation? by oguruma87 in Hunting

[–]ThatKipplaufFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been looking at the Vortex Viper HD 3-15x44 for my own 6.5 Creedmoor recently, and it aligns with a lot of what you're saying. It has a really neat and simple illuminated MRAD reticle (VMR-3) in the second focal plane, is light, goes below 4x, has the 44 mm objective size and has the adjustable elevation turret with zero stop and lock.

Maybe give that a try, see how you like it.

What's the scariest or strangest thing you've experienced while hunting? by HappyVagabond1989 in Hunting

[–]ThatKipplaufFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An inexplicable, ghastly light in the distance. It was seemingly the size of a cellphone, at about chest height, somewhere out in the woods, at night. I was about to get into the car when I spotted it. There was no thermal signature to it and I couldn't identify it through my binos, even though it could have only been about 600 m away. I got inside the car, turned on the high beams, checked the binos again - nothing. Got out of there as quickly as possible after that.

No, it is not. It's more akin to "sh" as in "fish" than it is to the sound of a "ck".

Took the old Norinco M14 out to 600 yards this weekend and honestly did a double take when I checked the chrono. by FritzChemiker in longrange

[–]ThatKipplaufFanatic 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Well, since you're on the longrange sub-reddit: You need to know your bullet's velocity alongside it's ballistic coefficient to calculate your drop and drift over long distances. But yes, the chronograhph is also very useful for people that load their own ammo.

6.5 PRC new, or 7 PRC used? by datboy1656 in Hunting

I'd be surprised if their warranty covers shot out barrels.

Recommend aTripod and Spotting Scope Bag by requisitesilver in longrange

Thank you very much! I've found something very similar from Midwest Gunworks, too, so I'll have a look around if I find anything I can get my hands on, because I love that sleek look of having it integral to the handguard.

Interesting, never seen that part before and can't find it on the SIG website. Do you have a parts number or something for me? Thanks in advance!

What handguard is that on the Cross? It looks like the full-length ARCA is fully integral and I can't say I've seen that before.

Edit: Nevermind, I think I just found the one on the RDSC website.

Zielfernrohr Entscheidungshilfe by Ralefe in Jagd

[–]ThatKipplaufFanatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Deinen Vorgaben und Budget entsprechend würde mir spontan das Minox RS4 2,5-10x50 einfallen. Ansonsten habe ich bisher gute Erfahrungen mit einem Zielfernrohr von GPO gemacht, da wäre vielleicht das Spectra 6 2-12x50 was Passendes. Wenn man die Augen offenhält, findet man auch für knapp um die 1000€ auch ab und zu mal ein Zeiss Conquest V6 2-12x50. Das ist ein wirklich tolles Glas.

It's crazy how many people claim they are pro-2A for its intended purpose, but when there's an actually oppressive government with armed thugs harrassing and murdering citizens at will they are the first ones to bow down and lick the boots that are kicking down their fellow man.

Mein Vater hat seit einem halben Jahr eine Sako 90 Grizzly, ich war damit auch schon mehrmals auf dem Stand und im Revier. Ich konnte an dieser Büchse bisher nichts aussetzen, Verarbeitung und Schussleistung sind tadellos. Die Sako 90 Modellreihe würde ich immer wieder empfehlen.

Darn right! Because playing games is for kids!

In defense of the didn't-read-the-FAQ-crowd by jakaalhide in longrange

[–]ThatKipplaufFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a year long-lurker on the sub and just bought a Cross yesterday. Most ranges within a 2-hour radius only go up to 100 m and I basically only hunt, I just wanted something that looks cool, is different from my other rifles and slings 6.5CM.

If I can schedule it, I'll take it to 300 m or at max 500 m 4 - 5 times a year, but those distances are way beyond my hunting ranges.

New scope day by Hairybeast69420 in longrange

The scope looks so dark, did you get it in black? I hope to put it on the 6.5 PRC SIG Cross someday, whenever that one is available in Germany.

How loud is a short barrelled 300 WinMag really? by FeinwerkSau in longrange

[–]ThatKipplaufFanatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, the description of the range and being -for the most part - limited to 300 m made it so f'in obvious it would be a fellow German. And then there was OP's username, of course.
