I had kinport shave my tikka 5rd down to a 3rd also and don’t regret it. Weight savings aside, it’s flush with the bottom of my xlr chassis now and that was the big benefit I was going for.
I get some with mine, don’t know if a different bino will eliminate it. Scopes too, they’ll glare and whatnot. I’m sure there’s a fix but that fix costs dollars and I’m fine dealing with the glare 😂
7mm 180 berger on deer through the bottom of ribs at an uphill angle at 150yds. Dropped like a sack of taters and died within seconds.
7mm 180 berger on bear at 485yds, rib shot but was wounded. Made it about 50yds then finished it off. Right through the vitals but acted paralyzed?
245 berger...

I’ve ran a stud for years and after a season with the sparrow I don’t think I’ll ever switch back! Maybe the armor will have memory and expand back if you remove it haha
Buddy has the 5-25x50, really don’t notice hardly any difference between it and my 4-16x50 credo. Great scopes and the mil reticle has actually become my most favorite reticle to date I think. Easy to get behind and acquire targets on low power, but also delicate enough to do detail work at long...
This is exactly it. Having to think about farther shots with my saum and 180 bergers is always nerve racking. When the Norma and 245 bergers are out to play I just send it😂
Albino mule deer in Washington, pursued him but couldn’t turn him up again. Thought it was a lost cow at first until it stepped out from behind a tree haha. If it was a bit closer the trigger was getting pulled 🥲
