ColtPythonElite, Yes, its just like you said, "Glossy Black with a Silver Stripe on the front" I Paid $12.00 with the rings already attached to it. Thought to myself when I get a rifle, I'll have a scope. At the price I paid, I thought it was a deal. Thanks for your input, as my quick...

rcmodel, LOL... I went outdoors and looked through it on 9x, down the street, and it looked good. It was not bad. My issue..... I was trying it out "in the house" on 9x looking at a soda can. No wonder it was blurry, I was only like 25' away. Like I said, "I'm a handgun guy". I was...

I picked up a used Tasco 3-9 X 40 Scope the other day. It has the following markings on it... W39x40V Taiwan AT-64 1. Is this a rifle or shotgun scope? 2. Any idea on how old it is? 3. At anything past 6x it gets real blury, is that because its a cheap scope? It came came with...

Thanks for all the feedback and advice from everybody. My mistake was beliveing that I would achieve the FPS results that Hodgon's Basic 1998 manual stated. In closing, my 1212 FPS avg with HS-6, and the 1513 FPS avg with H-110, are actualy not bad, with a 125gr JHP. I'm not really...

zxcvbob, Yep, .357 mag Federal & RP brass. Started with 10.0gr back in 1996, shot it, liked it, did the job. I did not shoot at all from 2002 till this summer (abt 7 years) got the bug again, shot like 100+ rounds, loaded some more, then my buddy got a Chronograph, and thats brings me...

Steve C, Walkalong, What year is that Speer #13 manual? It seams every manual is a bit different, Speer #13, Hornady #4, or Hodgon's ect.... the results are a bit differnet. Based on Speer #13 data that you both posted, my 1212 FPS results were good vs their 1009 FPS result. That makes...

jfh, Are you saying that with a (ported / vented) barrel you loose about 20% FPS vs non-ported barrels? I never even thought about that. My 608 is ported, from the Factory.

RidgwayCo, Chrono was about 8' from gun. My buddy just got it, and was shooting his .308 handloads, @ 10', he said you need to be closer, so I went 8', however he forgot the directions at home, so he was not sure of what distance I should be with a handgun. His .308's (150gr were going...

tasco74, At (15'-18') I can put them all in the 4" target. My 608 holds 8 rounds, so it fills it up good. Thats freehand, and good enough for me. I know some guys will say they can shoot 1-2" groups, but I'm happy with what I can do. I just walk up and bang, bang, bang, until empty...

Hi there! This is my 1st post, and I'm, looking for some feedback on my current (.357 mag) hand load, as I am a bit disapointed with my FPS result. 125gr Winchester JHP 10.0gr HS-6 CCI 550 sp-mag primers Federal and RP brass I had a chance to use a chronograph and shot 11 rounds...
