First Time to 1200yds
#5
Awesome post. I really like that I can get that kind of performance with half the recoil of the .308, even when shooting heavy .308's.

I was just test-firing my friend's .308 at the range on Friday and even with the beast profile Krieger barrel, Iron Ridge receiver set, and PRS topping the scales at 15lbs, it was still recoiling pretty hard-enough to have the ocular piece of the scope hitting my glasses with each shot on higher magnification.

I've also shot my 16" out to 1200yds, which didn't make sense to me at all, but actually worked better than I would have imagined. I need to do some filming this year, now that I have an optics adapter for the phones as well.

Great fun for sure.
