Gun is a Blaser R8 in a GRS Bifrost Stock, Atzl Trigger, .308win semi-weight (for range only), with a Leupold VX6 3-18x50. Remington Factory ammo.
I knew I can shoot, but had never been on a range >100m before (pretty damn hard to find here…). Very happy with results.
No, I have a regular 1/8moa wheel, which is why I just recently got a new scope with mrad ballistic turrets. Haven’t had time to try, though. And the 300m range means >2h one way drive anyway :-(
For hunting, I use the same gun just with a .270win barrel and a different scope, that one is zeroed at 150m, that way I can shoot pretty much anywhere between 0 and 220 metres, further out I wouldn’t do anyway on a live target. But the shot still needs to hit a palm sized area for me to be satisfied, that’s why I need to train.
Ah that’s super cool that you can swap barrels and change the caliber.
I’m very fortunate to have a 300 yard range about 15 minutes from me. I’m even more fortunate that it’s a club. $280 per year and I can shoot for free all year, get discounts on ammo, and have a gate key and can shoot even when they’re closed. They also have a trap range, 3 archery ranges, and a pistol range. It’s probably the coolest club I’ve ever been a part of.
Oh wow that sounds awesome. I HAVE a 300m range, only 10min from where I live. However it is only open to the - I don’t know, maybe 3 or 4? - people who train on a national level and no one else gets to shoot at that awesome range they purpose built for the Olympic games some decades ago. So 364 days a year it’s empty. Fuck me, gun laws in Germany are awful. Used to be so much easier back in Switzerland, or even at home in Austria :(
