All this Nightforce talk has me curious to what scopes you guys have on your .223 Montanas. It's a different beast, so do the rules change?
Posted By: bangeye Re: Scoping a .223 Montana? - 04/19/16
Whacha gonna use it for? I just put a 3x9 I had around on my 223 and it worked out fine for me for shooting varmints out to 300-400 yds.
Posted By: VaHunter Re: Scoping a .223 Montana? - 04/19/16
I just put a Leupold VX-III 3.5-10x40 on my Montana .223 with duplex reticle, it is what I had laying around. The rifle balances very well with that scope. I have not used the gun yet.

I am considered putting a SWFA 6x MQ on it but the weight made me think I should just as well have a Nightforce NXS 2.5-10x42 on it and have more for the same weight. Obviously there is a considerable money difference that I would have to overcome.

My plan is to use the gun around the farm to shoot groundhogs and coyotes, plus whatever else needs killing.

I'm not a NightFarce Guy,mainly because I've shot 'em.(grin)

As 223 and 223AI Montucky's go,in both OEM and Custom spouts(at issued length and shortened to 21"),I've only shot Reupold 6x42's,1" 3.5-10x 40mm's(both with and without A/O),Reupold MK4 M3 3.5-10x,Reupold MK4 M1 3.5-10x,Subtension Fixed Illuminatti's,6x MQ Fixed Fhuqkers,6x MD Fixed Fhuqkers,10x MQ Fixed Fhuqkers and 10x MD Fixed Fhuqkers...offa the top of my head.

The 6x MQ steals the show,especially for threading needles. BUT,if you are setting it up to be a dedicated Tag Puncher,the Illuminatti do rate a fhuqking thunk.


My OEM Montucky 223 finally mandated a rebarrel and I had better than 10,000rds+ of 6x MQ Fixed Fhuqker fun through it,but had different glass upon it prior for more round count. Poked a Bartlein 1-8" 18" 270 spout on it,geared expressly for 105's and haven't had it but mebbe 4 months or so and only have a coupla thousand 105's through it,the Lion's share of which were steered ala 6x MQ Fixed Fhuqker. Poked an Illuminatti on it the other day and have whistled 300rds+ through it these last few days and am diggin' the notion. Haven't had the weather to shoot it out past the 1500yd line,but the itty-bitty bitch assuredly fhuqks with heads and "HOLY Fhuqking Schit!" is an oft used descriptor,by them who've seen/shot it.

DD Signatures and an ass lift,arrange nice favors to erectors at 70MOA inclination total. In OEM 223 and a 225yd zero,it eeked 42.7 Mils of erector travel ala 6x MQ. With the new spout and Illuminatti,there's 49.5 Mils of erector after a 200yd zero. Them is nice "problems" to have. Hint.

With 20,000rds+ total through the receiver,she's just now starting to knock the new off and some of that high luster shine,is starting to fade.

Sugar tits you stupid turd you always pick the literal so please tell more about the "scopes you shoot". Personally I shoot rifles and the scope is an aiming device. Point your finger and pull your thumb up now go bang I guess you can shoot a hand too, all be damned. Laughing

Been busy killnshit so forgive me for not having time to slide you a soap box. Here you go little guy.

Scope it for how you'll use it.

6x42 LRD has been all I've used on a .223 Montana. It's taken a beating on ATV's and tractors...no zero change yet. Works well for quick shots at ranges less than 400 and will help keep the Montana light if that matters to you.

If you're wanting to dial and you're not counting oz's I'd have a hard time looking at anything but the 6x SS.

Here's a 84M VX3 12x40 in talley LWs (mediums) I have a new K6 to put on after the load work is done.

This one has the LR duplex reticle which is about perfect, it's so good the K6 may go on another project.

Posted By: Ringman Re: Scoping a .223 Montana? - 04/19/16
My .223 was rebarreled awhile back, but it started with a Burris Signature 8-32X. When that failed I installed a Tasco World Class 6-24X40 and then got a good deal on a Weaver 6-24X40. The Tasco is the best value by far, but I really like the positive clicks on the Weaver.

Fredrica,

Your impressive list of very WELL founded insecurities and AMAZING Do NOTHING Dumbfhuqkery,never disappoints,in it's oblivious hilarity. Congratulations?!?

If only to burst yet another of your bubbles,the Reupold 2.5-8x is an EPIC Goat Fhuqk Piece Of Fhuqking Schit. That due simply to zero retention,tracking and return to zero...if only for starters. Hint.

In fairness,I've not shot nearly as "many" RAR's as you,though I've sure as fhuqk have shot a schit ton more. Ain't that a "coincidence",due Montuckys as well?!? You'd need a co-signer for the muzzle tape. Hint. Laughing!

Here's to the HILARITY of you doing your best,as you Whine Vagina Monolgue after Vagina Monologue,to quantify how your "means","abilities" and "experience" wouldn't wet the bottom of a thimble.

Bless your heart.

Laughing!.................















'CUBIC,

The REUPOLD LRD sucks ass in all flavors and cain't begin to hold a candle to anything worth a fhuqk.

For starters,cite 100yd LRD 6x42 subtension values,if only because it will be fhuqking FUNNY. Hint.

The archaeic nature of the Goat Fhuqk,really is EPIC fhuqking hilarity,as it's predicated upon Joe Average being very STUPID. Hint.

The Illuminatti and it's CONCISE Mil scale,which jives exactly with it's 1/10 Mil erector,for over (3) 6x42's total erector fhuqking travel,ain't tough to swoon. Read that again. Now one more time. Take a deep breath and realize that the Illuminatti weighs the same as a Reupold 6x42 and costs less,while offering an illuminated reticle. Just sayin'. Hint. Laughing!

My rifles are Safe Queens too! Have only puked (3) follower springs,on this particular receiver alone. Hint.

[Linked Image]
[Linked Image]

Though in fairness,I've receivers that on their 5th spout..............















Clays,

The Reupold 12x 1" bitch,is a fickle fhuqk and TENDER. That besides their being embarrassingly shy in erector travel,zero retention(due tube length) and return to zero...as well as their A/O's being an accident waiting to happen. It'd be amongst my LAST choices on a Montucky,mainly because I own said glass and said rifle. Hint.

I also suffer more than a few T-Series Weavers and of course a fhuqking few POS K 6's. The T's certainly had their day and in their day...they were stellar. The K's have ALWAYS sucked and always will. Hint.

Now don't "tell" Fredrica,that there's a RAR in this pic. Laughing!

Reupold 12x A/O aboard a 77/22 17HMR(GM SillyWet spout and Custom handle,RB trigger,yada yada).

[Linked Image]

I could prolly add a LOT more fuel,to the fire.

Like mebbe an AMT 10/22 all juiced up. This receiver is not threaded,though my other is. Google it.

[Linked Image]

Bless your heart.

Laughing!.................















efw,

The Reupold 6x36 sucks at ALL ranges. I keep one for giggles and INSTANT feedback,aboard a RWS Diana 34 pellet rifle,along with a K 2.5 on another RWS,if only to extrapolate to a 10x Fixed Fhuqker on yet another(FWB 300S). Side by each comparisons,are NEVER not intellesting.(grin)

[Linked Image]

There is in actuality,very little utility in the parcel. Pardon my having everything cited and lotsa stuff that has yet to be mentioned.

Hint.....................















Ringmam,

Your AMAZING Stupidity,never disappoints in it's EPIC grandeur. Congratulations?!?

Bless your heart.

Laughing!..........















DD,

Color Matching is more difficult for me,than most...because I've only (1) rifle and only (1) scope.

Laughing!................















Sammo,

Describe how YOU align them 6x42 LRD dots.

Be CAREFUL,in citing the boolit,zero,velocity and subtension...in NO fhuqking particular order.

Laughing!

Bless your heart............















'Bandito,

Buy what Fredrica,Jeff-O,Ringmam,Shefire and Salvage99 say...if only because between 'em,they shoot [bleep] fhuqking nearly a WHOLE box of 20rds of ammo a year!

Don'cha' worry...they'll have picture "proof" of the splendors too.

Thanks for mentioning me in your diatribe there Stumpy...I'm honored... but I have to ask since you never seem to mention it... is how does all of this rust on the magazine, the follower, the barrel, the bolt etc...help with the accuracy of all your rifles?

I mean, all of your rifles seem to have plenty of it... so I'm sure it has to add to all the accuracy you always claim...

do rusty rings make these Super Chickens shoot better???
Posted By: Big Stick Re: Scoping a .223 Montana? - 04/20/16
Shefire,

It'll come as a "surprise" only to you and those of your ilk,that weather simply happens,when one is trying to wear out the Outdoors. Fortunately for you...you get to follow closely and read every word and gawk every splendid pixel,you "lucky" kchunt. Congratulations?!?

Never been tough to cypher who shoots and who don't. Hint. Laughing!

Rifles ONLY shoot loose,they do NOT shoot tight. Hint. Read that again. Now one more time. Best Google it,for good measure too. Laughing!

Now as to Precision,bore condition is what's paramount and I read somewhere that folks can actually tape their muzzles,to eschew damaging a land/groove,prevent bore obstruction and to keep some dampness from said nether region. Also read somewhere,that ACTUALLY shooting,might just dry 'em out and one can cypher POA/POI sanctity at the same time and extrapolate them findings in compare/contrast of numerous other platforms...because in the REAL World,not all wares is equal nor close. Hint. Read that again. Now one more time. Best Google it,for good measure too. Laughing!

For long shot strings,harmonious CBS sanctity and threadin' needles as per whim,there just "might" be a leetle sumptin' to Moly Smooches and "cleaning" with boolits. Read that again. Now one more time. Best Google it,for good measure too. Laughing!

Hell,knowing me...I mighta just swapped out some stalwart rings yesterday,to upgrade and hedge a bet aboard a coupla platforms. Hint.

Had been sufferin' 1913 TPS alloys on the Rock Sammy 1-8" 22-250,with a piece of fhuqking schit MK4 M3 3.5-10x Reupold. For a platform so Skookum(heavy filled A5,3-way butt,Badger M4 steel bottom,Timney,yada,yada...the usual),it's dismal erector travel really slams windows of opportunity closed,due literally to design. Could suffer that fate no more. Great time to nod your head,like you've a fhuqking clue. Laughing!

Soooooo,they got peeled and Aadland triple 1913 lugged alloys got bolted aboard instead,as an opening move. Google it.

Laughing!

[Linked Image]
[Linked Image]

The machine work is superb,the bearing surface soothin' and their low mount height is always warm/fuzzy. I'm hating on all my Badger 1913 Standards already. Google it. Laughing!

With the ring upgrade,came a serious glass upgrade and aboard went a 10x Fixed Fhuqker MD. While I prefer the MQ's in everything,the Fixed Fhuqker MD crushes a Reupold MK4 M3 3.5-10x and the rifle literally came to life,given the huge erector travel increase and pinpoint tracking,zero retention and returns. Google it. Laughing!

[Linked Image]

Beings I've a Retrostalgic whim every so often,I decided to yard the Fixed Fhuqker 10x MQ offa THE Ball Burper and sorta retire The Old Gal from said duty. It was rocking the new Burris XTR Signature 'Horn rings and tossing 40MOA in the equation via rings alone,never hurts production. Hint.

[Linked Image]

Anywhoo...I mechanically centered the Mk4 M3 3.5-10x windage,accounted for concentricity ala 'Horn ring eccentric and snugged the bitch up. While XTR's won't mount as low as Badger Standards,Aadlands and the like(.825"-ish),or nearly as low as Warne Maxima's...the massaged HTG's sculpting upgrade,keeps all in synch. Google it. Laughing!

Now as a reward for helping all the Newbs,who've burped Ball through THE Ball Burper,I'll slate it to an express diet of Lapooey hulls,200's,and DBM fed Skinner Smooches,until I gotta toss another barrel upon it. Nod your head,like you have a fhuqking FIRST clue. Laughing!

The Old Gal coughed up 55MOA from a double hunnert zero.

[Linked Image]

Though for some strange reason,only the 18" 'Bart 270 made the cut yesterday for Bearnanza and I couldn't see anything that'd dry better than 20.5",so let the works walk.

Weather blew the fhuqk up too! Laughing!

Rubbed the fhuqk out 20.5" "Cinammon" Bear,having just slipped out of a strip I actually cut. Ain't it fascinatin',how everything ties together?!?

Laughing!

[Linked Image]

I already beat on the first creek on the menu this morning,so it's time to grab a bite,tie up more Riggin',make a thermos of coffee and go Chrome Dredgin' WFO. Hardly "fair",how that jaunt less than a mile from the house,trumps your best "efforts" of the year and it's just now 9:30AM. Laughing!

GOOD talk,as I always enjoy your inside look at Retardation and grant you the opportunity to flaunt your Imagination and it's Pretend.

"Slow" day today. Had to Dredge Chrome,Sort Bruins,Reload and open Mail. How'd your Googletitude go?!? Laughing!

chris84 was good enough to accept my Triple Ti 84 order and it was received today. Big Momma yarded it home and I not long ago cracked the goody outta it's shell.

The Six Twat-Six was firstly,due receiver length and bolt travel,so it were tossed in the bight quickly. Had zero feel for OEM handle thread locker breaktitude,so stabbed it in my barrel vise and ran schit past "snug". Laughing!

The threads broke easily and once the residual 'locker was cleaned,the bolt body's recess was degreased and relieved of blast media. Then it were a matter of confirming pitch and thread count,while setting the Ti handle in it's new home.

BR,

That 7 Whizzum is Sister's and I by and large leave it solely for her,as I've a coupla others that I lean on. It's Reupold 6x42 is still hangin' in there,as a are the LW's and it's ONLY due to sentimental reasons that it is so configured.

Montucky 7 Whizzums.

[Linked Image]

My pick of the litter is Goose Poop,due of course it's 6x MQ. The other wearing the Mk4 M1 10x MD,is more of a Play Toy and reserve.

[Linked Image]

On a day like today and with newest lot of '22(CH slower) tossing original charge,it will squirt moly 162 Smooches right at 3100fps. With it's 250yd zero,the 6x MQ reticle alone,will only get it to the 1300yd line. 2000yds of 10mph full value wind is a scant 4.6 Mils,which affords some opportunity. A mile is sub 20 Mils and the erector happily houses wayyyyyyyyyyy more goody than that.

I "wonder" how many people on the planet,have MQ'd a Polar Bear? Now Greenhorn and Shefire can both say they've "seen" an MQ reticle and have "seen" a Polar Bear to boot. That'll make for a purty gawddamned fhuqking BIG day for them two.

Laughing!

[Linked Image]


162's are a fhuqking amazing HAMMER and it's nice to throw Goose Poop in the crummy,when some Lippy Fhuqker is wanting to "tell" or "show" me sumptin'...though it never goes the way they "think".(grin)

Need to source some 1913 spec 2pc shallow bases for 8400's and get some 40MOA 'Horn rings barking on them bitches. Too bad the stupid fhuqks at Burris,won't offer Signature 30mm DD's.

I let creek water warm a smidge,as it cooled off a bit overnight and I need to gun some quickaloo Sleeper come-ups to the 1300yd line,to confirm dope is golden,though I know it is. I "suffer" from KNOWING that shooting is still fun and am always happy to find an excuse to make more empties.

My 'puter was trying to crash,so I made a wind call and sent one from the hip.(grin)

Anywhooo...most all of my LW failures and those of pards,have been aboard S/A 700's. Though I managed to do it on a Montucky 223 receiver too. That Crash Rate is a direct reflection of round count,because nobody shoots Boomers as much as they used to,due the LRF advances. There was a time,when that's pretty fhuqking much ALL I shot,except 223 and 7-08,because the ONLY move was to squirt Ping Pong Balls as fast as one could,to fend range estimation. I shoot a bunch daily(prolly more than that) and seldom is a L/A in tow,barring Lucifer the Six Twat-Six and it's 105's.

Speaking of which,EVERYONE needs one of these little bastards. 407 Clams to the door,is simply fhuqking AMAZING,given the magnitude of it's splendor.

I've only tried the Ascent handle on the 84m and the Tac handle on the 8400. Between the two, the Tac handle on the 8400 takes the cake. I was going for weight savings with the Ascent, but I may switch it out for a Tac, simply due to the ergo/leverage advantage.

You be sure to share more of your Geriatric Opiate Addled Candy Striper "hard charging",as you set on your couchbound kchunt and unleash your Imagination and it's Pretend.

Cheer up...I'm OFTEN Imitated,but sure as fhuqk ain't never been equalled. Your heart is in it,you "lucky" kchunt. Laughing!

Hint.

Just sayin'.

Bless your heart.

Laughing!...............















'GUE,

You like everyone else,is MORE than welcome to all the rope you "think" you can handle.

Was chasing light and fending wind and dropped the ball by not gunning a frame of this HOG,through The Illuminatti....not too long ago this evening. He's crowding 22" Dry. Google it.

Laughing!

I NEVER doubted you were a "hard charger".

Bless your heart.

Laughing!................















Jordan,

I've gunned lotsa Ascents(OEM and Ti) and I savvy the premise,but for actual USE...the Ti Tac steals the fhuqking show. Chris knocks it out of the Park,without a doubt.

Rattled a couple 5rd bursts outta the 270 and the ergo's/mechanics are MUCH improved. Was easy to shuck/jive and catch empties with my offhand,as fast as I could aquire through The Illuminatti...which sure in the fhuqk ain't "slow" or close.(grin)

Shouted at my Plumber today,to tune the Donkey Dick 270 being crafted currently. Told him to knock 3-inches offa the 1-7.75" Benchmark MTU contour's shank,leaving me 2" and to crown the bitch at 19.5",as it will be my "long" one. It's a FULL inch longer than my 18.5" Bart' 1-8" 270. Which reminds me,I need to get inletting on it's handle,as it will be passing me in the Mail as I Jet to work.

Confirmed SLEEPER come-ups and all is well there,as I rung 875yd steel CBS in a touch of wind(understatement). Slapped a coupla other pokes around to max erector travel and all is in synch,as best as one can be with 1MOA erector travel "increments".(grin) Would rather windage be (1) MOA "clicks" and ele halfa that.

To help others out,I took the time to sight-in the parallax adjustment and now Infinity is actually at the end of the spectrum. Denoted 250yds as a default and there won't be too many that will be able to fhuqk that up.

Gotta yard Chrome in the AM,if only because a Low Water Slaughter is my cup of tea and then play the afternoon/evening by ear,due to wind conditions. One can crowd HOGS and do lotsa schit,but only let 'em wind you once and it's OVER. Better to take the money and run,than educate Splendid Beasties.

Now I gotta decide what to schlep streamside in the AM.

Decisions...decisions...................

So Stumpy....

when you finally wake up at 10 AM and can finally get out of bed at noon due to the hangover you'll be enjoying.... could you do me a favor and ask Hutch to translate that last post into English from Alaskan Trailer Park Gibberish & Poor Grammar?

Really don't know how you'd survive if you didn't have that Lab to look out for you... Between Hutch and your wife, I'm writing a letter tomorrow to the Pope and Asking his Excellency to grant Sainthood to both of them... If anyone deserves it, they do...

But thanks for thinking of me once again there Stumpy....it always nice to know you care... tomorrow I might even venture off the couch in your honor and go throw a rifle in the creek for the weekend to clean the barrel and rust camo it up so it'll look like your rifles...

best regards as always...

hey, isn't monthly bath time coming up this weekend for ya?
enjoy it....have fun turtle waxin that queball of a head of yours....You're just so AWESum!!!

Stick,

Rope, like .45's and knives, is always nice to have in abundance.

No bears where I live, and not used to judging what they measure, but it looks like a big'un, and I will defer to your learned judgement in that regard.

My hard-charging days are over. Bad knees and heel spurs put an end to that. I now charge only when absolutely necessary, rather than recreationally as in the past.

I don't live where you live, and don't have your opportunities, assets, and skills, so I have to read your posts with humor, take hints as applicable, and live vicariously through your posts.

you don't do it yourself?
I can,but the place where I bought the scope and bases,rings will do it for me.

In other words,being lazy. wink
Posted By: Kaleb Re: Scoping a .223 Montana? - 04/23/16
I wouldn't call it lazy. Seems like much more effort to haul scope and rifle to another location have it put on then go back.

elkchunternm,

Don't let the razzing getcha down,as even someone as fhuqking STUPID as you knows better,than to try and mount a schitty fhuqking scope on a schitty fhuqking rifle,all by yourself. What schitty mounts are you gonna have the Walmart Greeter install for you? Congratulations?!?

Bless your heart...you amazingly Clueless STUPID Fhuqk.

Only saw one new scope,go on one new rifle yesterday,as the weather was tough with a low ceiling. Now you can say that you've seen a 77/22 Hornet setback and punched "K" and crowned at 19"...wearin' an Illuminatti. R/P Virgins,'296,400's and 35'Max Smooches bein' a given. Hint.

Don't rile her,or you may be forced to suffer Imaginary Pretend ignore.

Kaleb,

I'd buy the video of you "showing" elkchunter how to install a scope. Hit me with an addy and I'll get a $20 USPS MO headed your way.

THANKS!

Laughing!................















bsa',

I getta kick outta you Do NOTHING Dumbfhuqks and your "hard charging" "Adventures". might you be able to remember the year in which you were in the REAL Outdsoors? I mean besides never? Congratulations?!?

Looking forward to your next Whine,some fresh Excuses and more pics.

Got sidetracked last night,loadin' a buncha ammo and am torn on the day's project. Cain't decide to nestle the Benchmark .243" 1-7.5" MTU 270 at 19.5" and wearin' a 2" shank,in the Blue By You or Green Machine. Thoughts? Feel free to use as Imagination and Pretend as requisite,to feign having seen either pattern in the flesh. I enjoy a good laugh,fueled by the efforts of someone who "knows" and "does" as "much" as you.

Shefire,

Your Do NOTHING Dumbfhuqkery,never disappoints in it's oblivious hilarity and I REALLY enjoyed your Candy Striper Stories. Congratulations?!?

Only (1) new rifle arrived yesterday. 'Nother no-turn .272" 1-7.75" Hawk Hill 6BR,set up to run ala DBM's. I reckon MDT and AICS 10rd 223 poly's will get the 105 nod. Google it.

Being great ain't easy,but it's worth the effort,but at least you get to read every word and fixate every pixel you "lucky" kchunt. As great as I am,I can't even take pics of things that haven't happened yet...though there are them who are convinced that I can. Mad skeelz is plum handy and you reserve the right to declare that you "could too",if it sweetens the "satisfaction" of your Imagination and it's Pretend.

I'm fhuqking cryin'...I'm laughing soooooooooooooooo hard!!!

Bless your heart.

elkchunter,

Do tell about the "particulars" of the Walmart Greeter Scope Install and the "almost" got it sighted-in Regimen. You poor poor STUPID Fhuqk! Congratulations?!?

actually looks like it was farted on, that did him in...

by the color on his scales, I'd say a real toxic fart...

One of Stumpy's patented "Super Atomic Bomber " ones...

heard he did in a shark with one last fall.....


Did anyone notice Stumpy mentioned my name in his post...

I'm not worthy!!!! He's just so amazingly AWESum!!!!

especially considering he's 3 ft 6 inches tall... can you imagine how much AWESum-ness he'd have if he was 4 ft tall?

maybe we fan can pitch in and get him some 6 inch elevator tennis shoes with the velcro straps.... in a flash day glow pink or lime green, or a sharp yellow with blue lightning bolts on the sides.... and those heels that light up with the red flashing lights on the sides when he walks... just like the ones so popular with the kindergartners...
