Oh momma, what a beauty. Naturally I just picked up a Montana. Free bump for ya

I developed a load (don’t remember off hand) and it shot excellently. Vihtavuori powder and I think 140 tsx. Haven’t shot it in about 3 years but it was around .5” 3 shot group. I’ll post load and pics of Leupold tonight. I believe it’s the straight vx3, not 3i.
I’m pretty interested. Since I’m a new member I’m not able to message you. A member in another forum pointed me to this thread as I’m looking for a 280ai.
My apologies. This is a vx3i. This is my gun. I bought it new several years ago. I think 3-4 but maybe longer. Wasn’t too long after they came out with the ascent. Shoots great. I’ve only shot N160 and 140tsx out of it. Overall weight as pictured is 6 lb 2 ozs.
I’m a buyer at $2k. That is my max budget for a new rifle. If you’d consider that I’ll give you my email since I can’t message. This Is a beauty and exactly what I’m looking for.
