    Unit 22 OTC Deer Advice

    22 is full of deer. Pick anywhere from what the game and fish site suggest and glass glass glass. You will find them. I don't think anyone in 22 will go more than a day without glass up deer. The only unit I' ever been in that I glassed all day and not see deer is 37b. And that's more we'll known as a tougher unit.
  2. Just go to my last message and click Qoute. It will add the message that you want to write about. As for the fire forming that sounds great! But I'm new to fire forming and not dumbing you down I'm hoping you are getting the right amount of forming. It sounds like you are. If that's the case does that mean you can fire form and not burn up your barrel ?
  3. You need to do a video on that one. Even with a muzzle break??

    Load Development Help

    I can't remember but a 1:9.5 should stable that bullet. Any heavier you probably want a 1:10 barrel. I could be wrong One would want a faster twist, not a slower twists to stabilize a longer heavier bullet. Ha ha ha yes!! Brain fart. Thanks for pointing that out

    Load Development Help

    Huh interesting!! I need to read up on that more. I was also told to use magnums primers instead of my 210m. My groups went from 1" to 2". Switch backed to 210m federals and it tighten back up. I don't know if it will work out for me in the long run. I've had my best success with 210m with H1000 in the 300 win myself. Warm or cold temps. I'm going to try it again and use a magnum primer. I was shooting it and pressure spiked and my bullet was shooting 3100 fps. I droped it from 78.7- 78 and Im still over 3,000 but with a slight creator on the primer. My Coal is were its at and the gun likes it. Im going to drop it another 0.5 grain and see if my velocity drops and reduce these creators. But still shooting 1" MOA. Maybe when I tried that magnum it was a fluke so we will test the magnum up to the 210m again.

  8. Thats sweet looking. Just the other day I was craving some dove jalapeno popers. So if you need to get rid of some Im here for you
  9. Mine so fare works. Does well for the price! Glass is also great compared to the 300-500 scopes out there. The 1500-2500 it has nothing on it. I hit plate 1000 yards with my 300 win mag with it so it can do the job.

    TRADE TIKKA T3 LITE FOR POOL TABLE

    Man nobody is home If its a 308, .270, 30-06, 243, 7mm-08 ill be interested in buying??
  14. I went ahead and picked up the H4831 and some magnum primers. Ill work that up and see. All of them were around 1.2-1.5" at 200 yards. I think I could of gotten it a little tighter to maybe 1" due to shooter. I had alleges and my eyes were watering up 80% of the time. I had to pull off the gun a few times and blink a hundred times so I can see. But with a few adjustments with the H-1000 I bet i can get it to under .75 at 200 yards. But I really want to see how it does with the H4831. Also since your bergers are at mag length that keeps me excited to try them out.

    Once in a lifetime last day buck

    Big!!!!!
  18. So I took it out to the range shooting the first fire forms. Started off shooting 200 yards. Just started a load development of 3 shot groups of H-1000 of 57 grain- 61.2 grain. I set the Coal to the length of the magazine because I knew it would be a hunting repeater so I didn't bother starting just touching the Lands. Also shooting the ELD-x 143 and I notice from my 300 win mag and Creedmoor that these ELDs love shooting away from the Lands unlike Bergers. 6.5 143 ELD-x Nosler Brass Fed 210 M primer (ill probably switch to mag primers on the next one) Annealing brass, this is my second time and I think i got it down now. Every load was shooting sub MOA except for one and I think it was shooters error I was getting 3050-3150 on some of my top loads with no signs of pressure. Im going to do some fine tuning and see if i can get this to be a 0.5 MOA and less round. Also Im going to do a ladder test to check out H4831 and ImR 7828SSc to see what velocity I can get out of her.

    Athlon Scope Sale

    Funny these pics were on my I pad and they are crystal clear pics and then I send it on here and they look blurry. But I have already shot this scope on a Creedmoor shooting 2500 fps out to 1,364 yards at 61 moa and making a 1 foot group. Let my brother and dad shoot it which they both haven't shot in years and couldn't believe we were hitting target that far out there shot after shot. Picture was nice and clear. You will notice it clearness is at 4.5-25 power and at 29 power its not as clear as 24 but still really good.

    Athlon Scope Sale

    I was looking into a Steiner and a Kahles scope but really hating the price. I had the money but just didn't want to give it out on a scope around 3k. I posted about Steiner's and Chris (Douglas gun guy) texted me about these new Athlon Cronus. They are new to the market so one thing they are doing is keeping prices down to get into the market. They were half the cost of a Kahles and had lots of good reviews. Only good reviews! Now they are new so there are not hundreds of reveiws but they are good. They even have a youtube tracking video and the tracking was spot on! I was almost asleep when Chris text me and once I got on to look at it I was hooked. Went to bed around midnight instead. And in the morning I ordered one. I have owned this Cronus for a couple of months now and really like it. Glass is awesome and I compared it to a guy who was shooting a Schmeit and Bender and I thought it was right there with it. Now I only looked through his for a minute though. But he looked through mine a little longer and played with the turrets and was quite impressed with it. Yesterday I was shooting at 200 yards with a Vortex Pst 6.5-24 x50 and at 24 power I couldn't see any of my holes and for a couple shots I thought I missed paper. Pulled of the Cronus and set it at 24 power to compare and it was like magic! I mean the bullet holes looked big and black and stood out. Looked back through the PST and they disappear. 4.5-29x56 Athlon Cronus I got the Seekins 34mm rings for the 1" height so I barely made it with this Bartlien Barrel #3 and a 56mm lens scope Life time guaranteed and I believe it goes to new owner as well after a private sale Here is the daytime Illumination set on 29 power After my load development I was planning on sending this over to Lance and ask him to do a review against his other high end optics. But Im glad he buying one now and im still asking Lance when he gets it if he can do one of his detail write ups for us CWT memebers The only thing I wish it could be different was a tighter (skinny) reticles to shoot those fly wings off and the weight! Its high quality glass from Japan so this thing is heavy. But right with there with the other 3k scopes though. My other pic with my cronus didn't load up but with rings and scope it was 2lbs 8oz vs the Vortex 1lb 19oz But yeah contact Chris as listed on Lances post via website. Plus 4.5 power is still great for close shots and 29 power, well that solves my spotting scope issue
