Guest northernchris Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Just got in from shooting over some new ground me and Tommo have got Steve with his good sized vixen cub. As for me i shot my longest lamped fox of this season @ 389 yards (confirmed with the Geovids,and spotted by Steve),conditions where perfect in every way,no wind etc will go and pick it up in the morning as my new Lightforce cordless was flat that will teach me not to keep it charged up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6ppc Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Good shooting Chris,that is way further than my longest shot on a lamped fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest northernchris Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Good scope makes a HUGE difference,with the Nightforce set @ 32 it makes it easier to confirm the target at those bigger ranges at night.After lots of messing around with different loads the current one,useing the 69 HPBT Sierra @3500 fps seems to be very good.

6ppc Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Got to agree with you on the scopes nearly all my rifles have nightforce or swarovski fitted with the odd one wearing a leupold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest northernchris Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Ian Steve was useing his Sako .243 with either Winchester supreme 58 gr BT factory or Winchester 80 gr soft points.This new bit of ground is also @ Buckby on the other side of the road to Geoff's which is also next to mine.When you are up and about again you must come and have a wee looky.
