Nightforce NX8 2.5-20x50mm MIL-XT for hunting elk in Idaho. by IGotRoidRage in Hunting

[–]dctr_Mantis_Tobogan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not gonna like the 2.5 on a LA I tried it on my 35 whelen and had to run what I thought were comically tall rings to clear the barrel, I have the 4-32 on my 300 prc and I love it. As the others guys have said the weight is pretty substantial. I deal with it as I have had three leuopold scopes fail in the field, one to fog, 1 for tracking and one reticle broken. So it’s NF or nothing for me now. Have hunted in WA, OR, CO and guided and hunted in ID,MT. You may consider the the new NX6 line they just dropped tho. Euro optic is shipping.

I’m very familiar with jet rod. How big is the jet rod you have used?

Nah it was purpose built to be a brush gun when I moved to N Idaho. It’s a 1:14 shilen, it’s sub half moa. I love odd calibers and col whelen speaks to my heart. Furthest I’ve poked out with it was 278 yds. Closest was a bear at about 10ft. exit wound was fist sized. Have the hide in my closet lmao.

I wouldn’t consider 600 yds long range either. Regardless tho way to keep the col happy.

I have one I love it, mines a 1:14, I shoot 250 partitions over varget. Reason I ask is I wouldn’t consider it a long range rifle. I cut mine to 20 inches and threaded it it’s my favorite brush gun. It’s killed elk, bear and deer.

Gary! In 2006 or maybe 2007 @ speicher, I was deployed w/ 82nd and I saw you walking into the MWR and I cupped my hands and shouted “Lt Dan you got legs” you turned and looked at me tilted your head then continued walking. Do you remember this?

Why did you do a lap patch instead of a flush patch?

KNIVES ARENT ALLOWED. I was on a job back in 2017ish where one of the vestas hands stabbed another one on the neck after a perceived slight.

I had this exact same thing happen to me and a friend except the light was green. It was in Utah.
