.223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

[9487329]

Was doing some practice at the range when two guys next to me were desperately getting their braked 280AI dialed back in after the scope came 2 feet off zero, bear hunt in Montana tomorrow. Asked me if I’m hunting just coyotes with the .223 and said that 77gr tmk is too heavy to be shot out of .223.

All in the span of a 2 min conversation. Certified rokslide moment

Oh, and they only had 5 hand loaded rounds left, so they made the 2ft correction, landed one single shot 2” high, and called it dialed.

Private range and they were the only other folks there thankfully

Not private enough.

I can only get about 200 yards at my dads, but I truly feel for anyone who has to endure
“the range”.

Speak for yourself. Last trip to "the range" and not a soul around besides some elk. Shooting steel out to 500 yds

I’ll clarify.

I feel for anyone who has to endure the usual people at a public range.
