Quick math tells me 200 + 135 = 335.  MOA to Mils is 3.4377. 

You got about 100 Mils to play with, brother.   That's MASSIVE.  :thumbup::hail:

Really nice. Is the 45 degree knob fine tune or a lock?

 

It is the lock the whole thing is just a mastery of precision the scope caps are pinned and you can not reverse them or turn them around they only fit one way....

Sketch thanks my friend hope you get to come this year and try it out...

98Z5V thanks for the calculation i do believe I will run out of velocity before I run out of wind age lol but I intend to try before I go to a bigger caliber..

Canuckgaucho thank you

Outstanding rifle.   

As a side note I hope no one has something on order from Silencer Central.  It came out this morning that they are lobbying against any potential legislation removing suppressors from the NFA.  They could be the next Bud Light.

I'm wondering here why a company that makes suppersors would object to them being removed from the NFA, what am I missing here?

 

 

They are a company that it's main business and selling point is that they deliver to your door,they handle the paperwork they have specials on they pay the tax stamp etc. if they are removed their business model is Kaput!

They had to open offices and get ffl/sot in each state so they could deliver to you and not a local gun shop. If cans go off the NFA then they don't need all those offices and paperwork. Off the NFA they would have to ship to local gunshops so customers can fill out 4473

^^^   What they said, above.  It's their business model.  Cans-to-doorstep, eliminating a giant step in the process.  If suppressors are OFF the NFA, you can just stroll into your local gun shop, pick a can, 4473 it, pay for it, take it home that day. 

It blows their business model out of the water, if cans are OFF the NFA - and pretty much makes them useless.

Of COURSE they want cans ON the NFA - that would protect their business model, and keep them viable in the future.  Their only defense is that they ARE lobbying for a $0 Tax Stamp - but leaving cans ON the NFA - cheaper for customers, not shelling out another $200 Stamp fee - but keeping cans ON the NFA keeps them in business, with the model they've developed...

Another issue with leaving suppressors on the NFA with $0 tax stamp is the increase in the "legal" database of gun owners with NFA items.  I saw this on a LOA video and found the original.

So, I'm already not fukkin around with this thing.  @Rsquared never would send his MRAD out here early before a shoot, so I could do proper load development on it.  So, now, we're doing proper load development for a .338 Lapua Magnum bolt gun. 

I'm taking it out Monday morning, and sending a bunch of 225gr Hornady SSTs that I already have loaded up - the first year's load for Ron.  After that first year, we went to Hornady 285 ELD-Ms, and a generic load. 

Monday is ladders on the 285s, 86.5, 87, 87.5, 88, and 88.5.  Looking for pressure, and maybe a group size difference, big or huge or smaller.  Something to start with.  But, that's for the 285s.

This morning, I snatched 8lbs of Accurate MagPro, and a box of (100) Hornady 300gr A-Tips.  THAT is where the load development will happen...  

I'll start a separate thread after Monday morning's outing...   :thumbup:
