Good to see another “fun” video with scope info for a new budget scope. I enjoy watching your vids always an average guy style with a good sense for information. Looking forward for the next 257yd with different ammo next week. Thanks
Nice shooting. I use SKSP too and find it’s pretty accurate but does throw flyers more than some of the higher priced SK. Good enough for plinking though.
I was seeing similar results with sk standard. Would throw highs, lows, then right on. I could see it in the fps difference. Yellow box works for 100 and in most of the time. Ive switched to red box.
dude, I can't get my LRP or b14r to shoot better than 2ish inches at 100 yards(sk long range).. seeing you hit about 3 or so inches at 250 is frustrating. good on you. I rarely get rough extraction in the cold too. think its just the lube getting cold and causes sticking. happens more with cheaper waxy coated bullets like CCI stuff
Nice shooting sir!😮 So, because I have to stay "Budget" I just picked up a 6-20×50 and installed it on the 597. Can't wait to get it sighted in and see if we can't get it to 200, and see what we're doing!😅 Discovery Optics is definitely a brand I'm interested in. 500 beans isn't that easy to come up with but we'll see what the future holds!❤❤❤
@BROTUNED thanks for the heads-up on that! I wanted to mention one other thing, that being you were definitely one of the channels that got me editing. After seeing your videos, I just had to get some "picture in picture" going. Thanks for being around as I'm sure you've been an inspiration for many! ❤️❤️❤️
Much more forgiving than my vortex razor and viper pst gen 2. Not sure what else I could compare it to. I haven’t used my Arken sh4 gen 2 in a while so I can’t recall how the eye box was on that one. Basically it was clearer and easier to use than my razor that’s why it bumped the razor out. I’m sure the razor would be a lot more robust but on a 22lr rifle I usually shoot prone I’m not worried about combat proven durability
Thanks! The scope is a discovery optics ED PRS gen 2 5-25. If are interested please check out my latest videos description I have links and discount codes for a couple of their products save some money. Hope this answers your question. Cheers
Fail to extract. Slipped off the rim. If it did pull the brass it would toss it in the action. I am very familiar with the 457. Sharp extractor on right.
Very nice shooting. Try some of the long range ammo (SK, Lapua or Norma Extreme) and I think it will tighten up the groups. I have 2 DiscoveryOpt scopes. 5x25x56 and 5x30x56. The reticle is pretty fine on the 5x25 and better on the 5x30 for my old eyes. Both are pretty nice for the price. Definitely should be shipped with medium rings. The high rings are built well, but I replaced them within a week.

Good to see you back, bud!
Hey, thanks!
Good to have you back, 1c warm! not in Aus.
pretty good shooting at that distance.
Thanks
That's pretty decent being able to see 22 holes at 257.

I’ve got a coupon code and like in the description saves you cash if you go that route

Good video bud. Looks cold
Thanks 👍
How forgiving is the eye box on that scope? Anything to compare it to?

And I was hoping to get an idea compared to the SH4 Gen 2 😂
Glad to see you back! Good shooting! Did you give up on the IBI barrel?
No I still have it but haven’t shot it in a while. I’m still not sure if I’ll be sending it back or not.
Great video good shooting. What scope are you using thanks LMJ

I never could get the Volquartsen extractors to work
That’s the first time mine acted up. Not sure what happened. What was your experience

I would like to try the Discovery 5-40
