ORIGINAL: bronko22000

Well they don't have them scopes any more. At least I couldn't find them - the 2-7x Elite 3200 were $199.
We should all let each other know when good deals come up. Like this scope and the 21" GM carbine barrel. (Thanks Dave). BTW - those 2 MLs I posted earlier about on gunsamerica are gone. I'm not sure if someone in here got them or not.
bronko - I just found out about them a little while ago. Now I just checked because I was going to get a couple more and they are out of stock.. That one that Chris bought in the 3-9x40 would be a good one too.. I just have no need for a scope that big where I hunt. Although I could sure make it work. Most the time I have my scopes on 5X other then when walking...

Nice shooting. I'm sure it was totally the scope and didn't have anything to do with the shooter.

I have the Bushnell Banner Dusk & Dawn in 3-9 on my KRB. Excellent clarity from it. I think I'm going to get one for one of my other guns. The crosswires don't glow, but then I also only paid $80 for it.

I have a Dusk to Dawn Bushnll Banner on my Black Diamond XR. I could not agree more with the quality of the scope. I was able to see into the woods in the last few minutes of the day even better through it then my cheap Simmons binoclulars I carry. I swear, had a shot presented itself, I would not have hesitated to shoot. Also I have pushed some strong loads through the rifle and that scope has never budged... Good scope for the money without a question.

another range day was excellent!!!!






Even though it was trying to rain today, I wanted to shoot more with the .451 and the Bushnell 3200. I figured I was not going to melt from a little rain. And it is good to shoot in all conditions.

So I started with a clean barrel, just swabbed out is all. I loaded 75 grains of Triple Se7en 3f and let fly (Group #1). I had made an adjustment to the scope since it was shooting to the right on the last time out. I might have over did it a little. I then shot two more rounds. It was not too bad I thought.

So I clicked the scope back six clicks and swabbed the barrel. I then loaded with Pyrodex P. Since the rifle seemed to like it the other day. I do not honestly know if the one hit outside the group was the first shot, as I never went and looked until I had shot five more times.. The rifle shot a lot lower then it did with the Triple Se7en. (Group #2)

I then did not swab. I went and marked all the hits and was just going to shoot at the red tape again, but instead used an old black magic marker and drew a square in an unshot part of the target. This time I loaded with Triple Se7en 3f again, aimed for that square and shot until I ran out of conicals... (Group #3)

When I checked the target I considered getting some other conicals out, but the UPS guy showed up with a new toy for me to try out on the range.. So I called it quits and went and cleaned my guns. Things will get exciting around here in a few days if I can get back to the range.. I got a lot of work to do this weekend around the house, and company...
