It is a pretty slick system, Sig has with the BDX. I use it and recommend the rangefinders and phone app for friends. As for the scope, shots inside 400 have a pretty big margin of error built in, especially on elk. Past 400 the errors that can creep into the system make it less reliable. When it comes to long range, nothing beats an excellent scope and just dialing on the dope. There are many reasons why dialing is more accurate. And, while I use gadgets and electronics, I have redundancy down to paper data based on the atmospheric conditions for my hunting rifles. I won't just rely on the scope and rangefinder.

There is one best answer. Sight in the way you will hunt. Zeros can be affected by the position you shoot in, and for long range shooting it can make a difference. And, it identifies how far you can reliably shoot and keep the bullet on the target. Lead sleds and the like are the worst for your scope and setting a reliable zero for field use. For load development, sighting in a new scope, practice for isolating elements of the shot procedure, I will use a bipod and rear bag off a bench or prone.

PTG had a sale going for upgraded actions. Was a great price with what you got. I picked up a really nice one. All the upgrades if you were going to do any work on it.

LOL, you must not know how the law works if you think this is a Fed post. But, it is kinda funny considering the news. The ATF's new rules wouldn't affect this cause I am not an FFL, even if it were considered two receivers. These are perfectly legal to possess, own, and sell on this forum in a FTF transaction. The new 80% lower rule makes it a "receiver" but that doesn't matter here because at most they are bought and sold like a stripped lower between private parties in AZ. -
Sorry, not available. I have a listing for Sig 3000 BDX binos I thought this was for.

Looking for those two powders for a new rifle. I have some other powders, primer, and bullets to trades. Will buy or trade for them. I will sweeten any deal with a bag or gear we make from www.lswild.com, on top of a fair trade. Adding in value of $50 or more.

What is the highest velocity caliber?
loboscout replied to RichardJCross's topic in Long Range Shooting
Bullet construction/minimum energy/ killing effectiveness is a whole different discussion. I hold heretical views on that and will save that for later. Except, i shoot critters through the lungs behind the shoulder with a 180 VLD. The furthest one went was 75 yards of a dozen, from Coues to Elk. Here is a table for a 175 interlock at a generous 3150. It’s worse than the 150 VLD.
