Well that's just plain dumb. Everyone knows you cant hit chiit with a butt heavy gun. blush
A better solution would be to tape a couple of 16oz. keystone light cans to the barrel. with blue tape of course.... duh cool

Balance got to have balance..... laugh

Good thing it's CRF, or else it wouldn't feed right.

You done good to get off the couch. But if you want to get your name in the Hay Bale and Crockett record book, you're gonna have to pull out all the stops and get off the porch!

The gun will automatically go upright. With the right boolits.

Thank me later.

Other than the vertical orientation of the rifle, I like it a whole lot.

Want to check if this is ok I just put a SS3x15 on my 6.5 cmore hunter.
I will remove it immediately if not.

On a serious note how does the scope compare to the nxs line.

One positive of it being upside down is that the bolt is on the "right" side now. So I got that going for me, which is nice.

It'll also eject the shells more reliably that way as well with gravity working in conjunction with the ejector wink

Now it'll carry "euro style" on a sling much easier. wink

You are missing the fact that too many people get all wrapped around the axle when others have different preferences or opinions on "what works for them".

There have been several threads wherein people got all pissed off because someone else commented differently on what scope they could/should/would use on a specific rifle. This was usually followed by the typical bullying, name calling and attacking of indidivuals' heritage, sexuality and brain-power, or, lack thereof. You know? The typical 24HC thread.

Don't be so hard on yourself. You're an incredible slouch.
