Any of you guys attend? Myself, my dad and two of his friends went on Friday. I enjoyed it, but dang it was packed! I don't do well with big crowds in small spaces, I wasn't expecting such narrow isles and that many people crammed in there.
Scope was shot on their test rifle and you could cover a 5 shot group with a nickel. It's not the scope this time, I will admit Leupold stepped up though. They sent a 3 day shipping label to cover getting it back to them a second time, then sent it next day air last week so I could have it on...
Well I'm sorry to say (not really) I sold the 45-70 before ever firing it. I saw a 2019 shot show x bolt maple medallion 06 I couldn't pass up and brought it home. Beautiful gun.
I own two x-bolts both fine rifles so I can't speak to quality issues with Browning, but I have heard similar stories to yours about bass pro shops telling a customer to kick rocks when they have a quality issue with a firearm, scope etc. I don't buy firearms from any big retailers, I use my...
Shot with the scope Sunday, its still not right. Prior to it would zero then the groups would start creeping up then come back to zero. Sunday I got it to zero again and the groups are dropping. To my knowledge Leupold replaced the main tube and eye piece and the remainder of the parts were...
I lapped the barrel with the accubonds, they shot ok but part of that could be breaking the barrel in. Going to try some federal premium 180gr with the barnes TSX next.
As we all know DNZ is a one piece mount so if its out of alignment then it came that way from the factory. My dealer has a dead nuts bar I'll have them check the DNZ before mounting the scope. According to UPS its set to be at the house today.
According to the tracking my repaired scope is set for delivery Monday, if it hits my local hub tomorrow afternoon I'm going to try to pick it up myself.
Anyone had any issues with the accubond not expanding at lower velocities? Been doing some research and looks like anything under 1800fps won't allow it to expand. But...like I mentioned before this rifle is probably sub 150yds. Muzzle velocity on nosler's website show 2750fps for the 180gr, I'm...
Thanks for everyone's responses thus far, for awhile now I've been die hard Hornady but I think I'm going to go with the accubond. Or at least see if my rifle likes them.
Looking at specially the accubond and the sst superformance both 180gr, I hunt hogs and white tail - sub 200yds. Just curious if any of you guys have any experience with these two bullets?
Heard back from David at Leupold and they replaced the main tube and eye piece on my scope. He said both were damaged, I don't know how that happened unless it was damaged before leaving Leupold or in shipment to my dealer before I purchased it. I treat my guns like I would my child, maybe...
