Fun shooting. I think a lot of people look at my posts about getting bored shooting my 12" poppers anywhere inside of 700yds, and think I'm over-selling this cartridge/rifle combo. Your video confirms that I'm not in Lala land.
When you compare it to .308 or even 6.5CM or .260 Remington, it's just so much easier to manage the sight picture with, as there isn't that much muzzle blast or recoil at all compared to the 40-45gr loads in anything based on -08.
This is even true for me with a little lightweight Lilja build using their Wasp profile 318 18" gun with no muzzle brake, which is crazy.
