Thanks Mike... The barrel takes most of the credit and that wide forend really helps alot, and a good steady rest is a must. My worse thing is the glasses on,glasses off,glasses on,glasses off is killing me. The scopes I have with fast focus eyepiece I can shoot without my glasses on cause they focus to correct my eyes. But these Trophy scopes won't focus enough to correct my vision without the glasses.

Yeah RJ, it's the 150. There is almost no difference between the Nosler 150 BTs and these other then the coating. Impact is the same point with the same weight bullet and load in either. I just think the black bullets look cool LOL!

That's a front owls ear bag filled with play sand.
I would feel just as good using an old sock or two filled with sand in a plastic bag but the cotton just don't hold up to the cylinder blast from my revolvers like the leather. [Big Grin]

Nope...12 1/2" Ray. It was a Shilen bbl from VVCG in 30-30win and was very accurate then also.
