I’ve actually thought about doing a shareable fb post to try and find them but decided it might be weird trying to explain why I’ve had them on my wall for so long.
I’ve heard great things about the meoptas. I had a set of 10x42 meopta that were awesome. My maven b6 are the 10x50 and I think they’re great but haven’t used a Swaro to compare.
I don’t think you’d be wrong by going with either of them
I might be looking at it wrong because I DIY, but if they expected/needed a tip wouldn’t it just be reflected in their pricing? I don’t think I’d feel obliged to tip when they set the price
I have an nx8 4-32 and a tenmile 3-18x50. The tenmile was less than half the price of the nx8 and overall I like it more. I do prefer the way the turret clicks feel on the nightforce
I found this picture for $1 at goodwill back when I was in college and I couldn’t leave it there. It’s been on my living room wall for the last 15 years. I have no idea who they are and my wife hates it so naturally it has to stay.
Brass- ADG or peterson
Powder- h1000, N570, RL26
Bullet- personal choice depending on what you expect a bullet to do. 175 eldx, 175 Berger elite, 180 Berger hybrid, 180eldm in no particular order. 180 Berger hybrid does well in my rifle and has done well for me on game
Primer- I use Cci 250...
What barrel length?
Garmin xero is the way to go. Magnetospeed is also good if you are wanting to save money but more tedious to set up. Don’t waste money on the Caldwell style chrono
Posted on another thread but 23.9 TAC at 2.26 has them doing 2700 in my 16” tikka. These were put together for my AR so I haven’t tried seating any longer. Havent tried varget but heard it does well with the heavier bullets.
I’ve noticed a pressure increase with once fired when compared to Virgin brass at the same charge weights. If I remember correctly the thought is that the once fired brass has less room to expand in the chamber and experiences a pressure spike (and slightly higher velocities).
After it is once...
If I remember correctly (probably don’t) there was some drama about Sitka circumventing an agreement with Euro on a camo release, where it ended up being run through Scheels instead of Euro.
Thanks. I think I probably got caught up in maximizing COAL and freeing up powder space. At this point I’m out of virgin Alpha brass and will have to adjust charge weights with the once fired. Maybe I’ll find where it likes to be
