sighting in at a low elevation for a higher elevation hunt
As others have mentioned, check your zero. If you have the opportunity, take a few longer shots when you're at elevation. Close in, your zero might not be that different. At longer ranges is where the difference will be. Also, don't use a CDS dial. It will match up at your 1,000ft...- std7mag

Building a 280AI
A 1:9 will stabilize all but the heaviest of 7mm bullets, or the middle weight mono bullets. Heck even my 1:10 twist 7mm Weatherby stabilizes the 175gr ABLR. If the Terminal Ascent is a mono, at 155gr, it will need a faster twist. For the OP's stated 160-170gr bullets, the 1:9 will be fine. -

To illuminate or not
I'm well aware that an illuminated reticle doesn't illuminate the image. Hence the word "reticle" attached with it. And exactly as I said. If it's dark enough that you need the reticle illuminated to see it, then your not properly seeing your target or what is behind it. For archery I use... -

To illuminate or not
My thoughts on illumination are such. If it's dark enough that you need the reticle in your scope illuminated, then it's too dark to adequately identify your target. Much less what is behind it. Another animal walk behind it? Another hunter you didn't see? -

Hodgdon Bought RCBS - am I the only guy who missed the press announcement?
Really?? Seen any of their Enduron line recently? I can go to my local distributor and get any of the Vihtavouri powders. All are in stock at reasonable prices.- std7mag

New Scope for Muzzleloader
@JDH, I put a Crimson Trace Hardline 3-9X40 with the MOA reticle on my inline. Great glass!! Ability to just use the reticle makes things fast and easy. -

G5 Montec or VPA Three Blade
Personally I've been using Magnus Black Hornet Ser-razors with the bleeders. If you're looking for penetration, a single bevel is the way to go. -

Ruger No. 3 quarter rib
From a noob standpoint, Mazak is much easier to write programs for. Very conversational software. Having all the information on a tool when you set up the tool makes things less stressful also. Example. Tool 7A. ID grooving bar. Shaft .75", carbide, width 0.094". Nose radius 0.15 Depth of... -

Ruger No. 3 quarter rib
You looking for tailstock, or 2nd spindle on the TL2? One of the things I miss about the Mazak Quickturn 250 that I was running. Second spindle was really nice in that I only had to write one program to do a complete part. Our HAAS lathes with tailstock take 2, even 3 programs plus taking the... -

Holosun 515
I'm looking at the reflex sights mostly for the aesthetics of the rifle. The Sightron SIII 10-50X60 just wouldn't look right on it. Lol -

Holosun 515
Pictures? Not entirely sold on the Holosun. Other options are appreciated. Just want something small and low. Something in the $300-500 range. -

WWYD - 300 WBY
@perma, I totally agree with Addicting & Farmer20. You changed 2 components with the added effect of switching from fire formed brass to virgin brass. You need to start at the beginning. I'll help you save some money. If you want to use Nosler bullets, use the Ballistic Tips. For load...- std7mag

Holosun 515
So late last year I picked up a Henry Single Shot Brass in 45-70 for a woods rifle. Really like the gun, but the sights, not so much. Was thinking about putting a red (green) dot on it to keep the sights small and low. Been looking at the Holosun 515 & 530. Quite a few models for each... -

Short 7mm-08 barrel length?
Wait... 24" is too long for "tight woods". So you're looking to cut 4" off and screw a 6-8" can on it thinking it will make it better?? I'd cut it to 20" and leave the can at home. While you're at it, check the LOP on the stock ( wearing whatever clothing that you wear while hunting) and... -

Ruger No. 3 quarter rib
I'm seeing a HAAS VF3 in your future. Lol I really enjoy spending time on the Bridgeport at work. I'd almost do it for free. Don't tell my work that!!! Lol -

Finished my encore.
That's why I have bifocal safety glasses at work.
