do you ever come through Flag?

are your ever in Flagstaff?

I have both. They are very close optically and mechanically I prefer 1st focal plane for targets and second for hunting (I like seeing my cross hairs at low power in low light). If I had a 1st focal plane I wanted to use for hunting I’d make sure it’s illuminated. free bump

I had one for sale a couple of weeks ago that sold.

Heck of a deal

I run it on a Outdoorsmans pan head for years. I sold the Outdoorsmans and bought 2 Siuri VA-5’s. There is no comparison in smoothness.

I’m not sure what you want. If it’s a dual mount setup PM me and I’ll get you all the details on this set up..,it’s simply fantastic:

Cartridge length may not have an affect in velocity but case capacity does. In your example the PRC has about 76 gr of usable case capacity with a 185 gr bullet vs about 63 gr for the SAUM with the same 185 gr bullet. Velocity follows capacity if loaded to the same psi. The additional 20% of case volume for the PRC will give it approximately 5% more velocity than the SAUM ( nearly 150 fps) if loaded to the same psi with the same barrel length. Action length has about zero to do with it. In other words if I take a barrel off of a gun with a short action and screw it onto a long action I will get the exact same velocity. As an example the short fat 28 Nosler has about the same case capacity as the long skinny 7mm STW and they have about the same velocities. In the same cartridge the velocity will change as you seat the bullet deeper.

Gotcha…that’s why you used a 22” as your barrel datum…

Its not clear how an action length affects velocity? I believe the 7 SM has very slightly less case capacity then the 7 PRC, but very close. The differences could simple be that any particular chambering will have variances from rifle to rifle. If I were betting, I'd bet its because he is shooting factory and you are shooting reloads above 65K psi.

Somebody must need these? Nosler STW brass is over $4 each…and garbage Mike 938-607-6327 Flagstaff

Could you call Leupold with the serial number and ask?

These things are pretty amazing. 17-40X, 56mm and 35oz Brand new in box. $2250 cash FTF Mike 928.607.6327 Flagstaff

Hodgdon had pounders in stock. Limit 5 pounds.

Do you ever drive through Flagstaff?

I’ve handled this rifle. It’s pristine. Will somebody buy it so I don’t?

I would think cheek weld is what is most important and you can get that with high rings. Your 44mm scope will be about 1/2' higher off the barrel then a 56mm scope would be. The only disadvantage is aesthetics if you can live with that. Have you actually tried it with your scope? Good luck with your sell.

I’ve gotta ask What the heck does a scopes objective diameter have to do with it? free bump though.

It’s a dang good price for dang good glass.

But does it have Fluoride? JK....Free bump for outstanding glass at an outstanding price!
