    To be fair, the trajectory of your preferred caliber, forms the perfect limp wrist.
    You need a 20 MOA rail to reach my .260s zero range, You pedestrian caliber toting neanderthal 😆

    Mite come up after the roar for a few days. Waiting for sneeze to sort a house so I can bludge a bed. We my go to Kenepuru as well.
    Few snaps being caught here off the beach so I will have a go tomorrow.
    Salmon will be quiet till the next fresh.

    You know I love the .308. I just can't find a scope with enough elevation to justify getting another one😆
