300 mag, non heavy duty scope, maybe things move around inside a little shot to shot. Scopes don't always go all or nothing. One symptom is known good rifles shooting groups larger than they should.
I appreciate that input. Never really considered that. I always expect my junk to shoot 1 ragged hole in the end. Aggregate group from 3 powder charges, 2 bullets was 1.5". For now it'll just have to be acceptable. My shooting range is a 45 mile round trip. Been there for the last 7 or so days. Need a break.
As to the non heavy duty scope, I plan to move that optic to my 280 AI soon. It's running 140's at 3200 fps. Shouldn't be a tough load for that scope.
What's your recommendation for a worthy optic on the 300?
