Burris 4x scope. 140 gr Ballistic Tips at 3050 FPS. Full value wind at 30 mph. DRT Bang Flop. This was my first trip to Wyoming and I will be going back. Absolutely awesome. Saw mulies, 2 big 5x5 bull elk standing side by side, and a TON of pronghorn. Then it was my favorite rifles turn. Classic in .270 pushing 130 BT's at 3050. Boyds stock inletted, finished and checkered by me. 256 yards in 1/4 value 30 mph wind. Doe with 4 inch horns. I don't have the pics, but even the 1941 .22 hornet got in on the action and "Hornet flopped" a few prairie dogs at 100 yards using the old Lyman 48 peep. Sweet trip.
