1uglydude Report post Posted December 1, 2022 Very cool. Coincidentally, I was just contemplating this morning whether I should rebarrel my Striker in 22-250 in to something like a 6mmCM. That doesn't look like a handgun scope on your Striker, does the brake tame it enough for you to get your face up in there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazymonkey Report post Posted December 2, 2022 What kind of setup are you using to keep the pistol steady? I've got a striker in 22-250 also with a pistol scope on top and it seems like the cross hairs are always dancing around. Same with my contender in 223 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There older Bushnell I believe 2x 6 but I'd have to check .They seem to have a small eye box and if your not perfect aligned behind the scope you can't see .Probably just need new scopes with a wider field of view .Maybe a bi-pod and a bag will take care of it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK. I had a 1.5X on my TC and have a Burris 2X on a Super Redhawk. Neither one is what I would consider shooting much past 100 yards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
