You actually killed a pig and a cow?

Congratulations?

I split the difference with a Bartlein #3. No regrets...

3 should be heavy enough.

8” twist will stabilize up to the 147gr ELDs no problem. Haven’t tried the 150gr MK or the 154gr Berger yet, but Berger lists 8” minimum and Sierra recommends 7.5”.

I’ve not found any current long range hunting scope I like better than the 3-12 Bushnell LRTSi.

Thanks Hondo,

I won't be using anything heavier than a 147 in it. Thank you for the scope recommendation as well.
