    Loving this Kimber. 2 fallow today bang flop at 371y (me) and 157y (take a boy hunting). Straight through both times but heart and lungs destroyed and ribs/shoulder smashed by the 168gn Amax.

    Shot off the Backlanz bipod and it went fantastic.

    Young fella said no recoil from the 308. The A-Tec brake tames it to 223 level.

    Just tested the new CDS turret on the VX5 2-10. Just as well it went OK as yesterday posted the MOA factory turret to a forum member.

    Dialed 600y on the scope and my son smoked the gong off a jacket rest as forgot the bipod. I missed (puff of wind... )

    168gn AMax.

    "Dialed 600y on the scope and my son smoked the gong off a jacket rest as forgot the bipod. I missed (puff of wind... )" - cheeky wee bugger eh? Deduct the cost of the A-Max off his pocket money, that'll sort him out ��

    Tried the Kimber with a H2 A-Tec QD suppressor. Shot very well.
