    The one shot zero on my 257 (above) seemed to work ok under hunting conditions. 2 shots last evening. 2 deer. 271 and 160 yards. Longer shot was spot on - prone with bi pod. Closer a little high but...

    RugerM77 liked post by Juicy On thread : Hand held thermal now legal on public land
    I don't think this scenario is that likely with handheld thermals. When you spot a heat signature it is actually quite hard to figure out exactly where it is. Trees and surrounding features look...

    Ignore all the negativity Bruce. It's a lovely block. I went a few time back in the air charter days and took the fam there this summer. Up blue duck was always good hunting. This last trip I...

    Mine loves RL19. Interarms Mk X, 21in barrel. A 140- or 150-grain bullet with Reloder-19 and 49.5 or 50 grains will get you accuracy with velocity of around 2,850 fps. I'm using 150gn Remington...

    Looks like an initial 3 shot group. Then an adjustment to zero and then another 3 shot group. Then satisfaction. Then gun back into the safe.

    This and the post of your own you quoted hold a conceit that provides a false conclusion. For the average hunter it is important to have a proficient reasonable/relatable idea of your rifles...

    RugerM77 liked post by Barry the hunter On thread : 3 shot groups are useless!
    I thinik a good point here is that there is a world of difference between someone handloading building up loads and accuracy testing they may well need to shoot multiple groups - then there are...

    Hello everyone! I love being apart of communities and a few years ago I had my first shots with a 12 gauge after I saw Dad shoot at the local gun club. Skeet, trap are my main events and I love...

    RugerM77 liked post by Beetroot On thread : 3 shot groups are useless!
    I would recommend most hunters stay under 300m, unless they have actually trued their data at longer distances and have shot a reasonable amount at longer distances. I don't do a huge amount of...

    That was because us 3 shot guys are a pretty relaxed bunch. The 5 plus shot guys would have all been too busy fussing over their gear and fiddling to chat.

    Good to know - haven't used much Sako GH ammo before, but will give it a try out! Yeah, I think a real world drop chart will be the way to go. I don't have a dial up scope, I will just be using a...

    Appreciate the comments and advice. To be honest I pushed on a lot further than the landscape pics suggest so I'm not too worried. I will definitely take the advice in future posts as I don't want...
