    I've got your back Irving.

    Is this something you need done for hunting?

    Yes, antelope starts this Saturday, and I'm planning on heading out Friday day, that's why I was thinking Wednesday. I've got Brandon coming as well. Then deer is Oct 19-27.

    Start close and work out to zero distance.

    Axis in 308? Which glass? Ammo?

    Vortex Diamondback Tactical 4-16x44. FFP with Mildot reticle and adjustments. Today I was shooting Tula steel case 150 gr because I have some 150 gr hunting loads. The cases were sticking pretty bad and one is currently stuck in the chamber right now. I actually like my 165 gr hunting load better, but I was trying to shoot with what I had on hand without spending any more money. I've got several more boxes of the steel Tula stuff, but I don't know if I want to use it anymore.

    Gotta shoot something the gun likes, especially if short on time. Don't need function hassles.

    Well, this complicates things. This was the 150 grain. I've shot some 165 gr Tula that didn't give me this problem and still have one box. I've got 22 rounds of my preferred 165 gr hunting ammo, which should be enough to sight and still hunt. Either way, looks like a trip to the gun smith tomorrow.

    For me because of new rig I borrowed bore laser, it was POS and wasted time.

    Of course, always something comes up.
