RE: I just opened up my new omega
I just recently bought an Omega and have notw got it sighted in like I want, and am very impressed with the way it shoots. I got the thumbhole and it feels very nice in my hands, I can hold it very steady with no rest.
I have started shooting TC shockwaves, and am amazed at how they feel coming out of the rifle. Compared to shooting heavier powerbelts out of my CVA Buckhorn, it feels like Im shooting a .22. I have sighted in at about 2 in. high at 100 with 125 gr. T7 and it shoots about 2 in. low at 200 yds. I think this sounds about right, I havent shot that much at 200 and dont really like that much distance.
But, I live in Iowa and hunt mostly farmground, so like you said your problem is, I need to occasionally make some longer shots - 150yds or so.
Im really happy with the rifle and hope it works well for you too.
