Whoa! Clearly my Samsung S7 that I've had for five years or so needs to be upgraded but I can't stand spending money on that sort of thing.

Do you consider your FN to a long range rifle? It's one of my favorites on this forum and it'd look good in your earlier post. :D
 
I don’t have many pics of my long range rifle but here’s one

Defiance 300nm in mpa chassis with left hand USO scope. 6mil to 1000

That is my Impact 6 Dasher in an MPA Matrix stock. Quicker to move with for me, older hands aren’t as strong as they used to be, the narrower stock with a groove/ M-Lok slots on the side is easier to grip than the wide slick Foundation. I will probably do a .308 for the Foundation stock, not a PRS gun that I have to move quickly with.
 
did you get a second impact, walkalong? i thought you had a foundation under your 6dasher
 
20210113_112343.jpg this is a mid range ( 600 yard ) rifle I built on a Savage 12 action, SSS Dog tracker stock, rifle basic trigger, Criterion 1-8 twist barrel chambered in 6 Norma BR.
When I first put it together I could hold around 1.5 -5 shot groups at 600 yards then 10 shot six target average 3.3. over three months period. Now at 1900 rounds the accuracy has dropped off.
I still won a new barrel and scope last August at 1000 yards but it just cannot keep up with the custom actions.
 
20210113_112536.jpg The newest addition here is a BAT B action left port right eject, bix &Andy. 1 oz trigger sitting in a McMillan MBR stock, I have multiple quick change barrels chambered in 6 BR - Ackley. This thing will definitely put rounds down range in a hurry. A proven 1000 yard rifle.

Realizing what constitutes long range varies by person, I’m not sure I would qualify my FN SPR as such. It shares the same .308 reamer specs as my Mausingfield but I’ve not developed any long range target loads for it. It’s all been magazine length hunting loads. I need to do it though, just to see how it performs.

No excuses now, sweet rifle! :)
 
You qualify nature. Good looking rifle. Don’t let magazine length fool you it’ll tighten up. As mentioned earlier tinker with seating depth of everything else is good. Find your widest most forgiving area of seating depth and let it rip. Even with a fair amount of jump it’ll come around

I started to agree wheres that FN, and and @talivs sexy beast of a rig, and...and.......some many nice rifles on this forum....
Course i was about to complain about you not posting your AIs too...... perhaps one (i) should look at the second page.....



Here my gaggle of blasters, farthest ive taken any out on actual targets is about 500yds on steel.
This was a teaser pic to convince some buddies to meet me at the range yesterday.
....none of those were sighted, as id just done the scope hula with all of them....

And what inevitably ends up happening when you suddenly shout "shoot em in the head" in our group.....
