  1. Yes it is a newer range just south of Lubbock on I27, it called Lubbock shooting complex. Sharp shooters opened this range a few years back. I have not tried the 600 yard range out yet cause I am waiting on optics. Be here friday!!!!
  2. Sometimes when I'm tracking I wish I had a 2 wheel dolly. Only positive to all that weight is less recoil....I am out of Lubbock but if I drive 1 hour east there is some good hunting. Good size whitetail and tons of pigs. Also coyotes and bobcats seem to like the receiving end of my .308. I will wait on my stock to see how it plays with my scope. As far as the trigger goes I'm thinking 1 stage.
  3. I looked at them not bad at all. Thanks
  4. Hello everyone!!!!! I am new to this forum but not new to the game. I currently have a Lr 308 with a 24" bull barrel topped with a Redfield 3-9 50 ( in the mail is a Nightforce nxs 5.5-22 50) I will be trying to turn this into a 1000 yard gun. I still have the factor trigger which will be my next upgrade and factory stock. Suggestions on the stock and trigger would be great. Also ammo type is another concern. I will not be able to reload so only store bought ammo is a option for now. Also wanting to see what everyone shooting that far is grouping. Thanks.
  5. Nightforce nxs 5.5-22 50 and American defense recon mount
  6. I'm up in the panhandle of Texas, we have a range just south of Lubbock that has a 600 yard range.
  7. Hello everyone!!!!! I have finally found a awesome forum, thanks for making it the way it is. So I am from Texas and have a Dpms Lr-308 with the 24" fluted bull barrel. I currently have a Redfield 3-9 50 on there, however on the way is a Nightforce nxs 5.5-22 50. Also have a bipod and a cyclops light for night hunting. I am looking to make this a 1000 yd gun and think I am headed in the right direction but I do have some questions. 1. Best bullet for 1000 yard shots. Would use these to hunt with as well. I don't expect to shoot anything but targets at 1000, most hunting will be done from 50-500 yards. 2. Should I change the stock out? 3. Is anyone shooting this gun 1000 yards and what's the groups look like. I also will be changing the trigger but was wondering what everyone is using. 3-4 pound trigger at most. Also the light isn't mounted on scope, I boutique a 45 angle rail and stuck it on the end of the float tube.
