What did you use to hold the battery? Aim point PRO?

Yup, a PRO as an ersatz-M68. Wish they woulda designed it with a little more clearance so I could mount both spares holders from the pack*, but it is what it is.
*Primary, then Backup, then Backup to the Backup--PACE loading in my EP days meant a dozen loaded mags split between my person, my briefcase and my Principal's purse

Now I gotta figure out how to rack some spare AA's on the C8... that funky Canuck dickgrip doesn't have a storage compartment and CAR stocks don't have storage tubes.

Shot a hog, 62 gr. TBBC, approx 75 yards, walking into brush. Bang, flop-thought I heard an Excedrin request

I've had a series of never ending feed problems with a 308, I pulled it apart again and put the buffer tube (Receiver Extension) one turn out, and now it runs great.

Whats the guess as to the weight on that piggy?

**RHINOWSO** · 02-23-21, 13:32

That's gotta be nearly 250# of swine right there, if not a tad more, in my estimation.

OT, I synced up a Steiner OTAL-C with my RMR at night @100yards. Not as good as live fire, but it's close enough for now.

Haha, little bit of a pic stage, about 150. Fun though, great day, weather was nice this time of the year in Florida. He was at a slow walk, had time to exhale and press once the sticks went up before he would have disappeared, now or never and let her fly.

Tell me more about this. I’ve got a 300BLK build that I keep having feed problems with. I’ve bought several different buffer weights to try to figure it but I haven’t made it to the range yet.

Put them in the pistol grip and tape it shut?
