Dougy Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hi Shootgun, I have been looking at the same scope ,but the non illuminated model, do think it is worth paying the extra for the illuminated? Yes ! Go for it nice when the light's fading. What cal did you get 30.06 Nice set up shootgun. Looks smart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malkiserow Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Come on then, how much was it all? We are all jealous already so a kings ransome will not make our jealousy any worse...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Don't want to derail the thread but I would be interested to see what that does to a muntjac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say on a open forum, you never know who's watching me and i don't want to be kicked out Don't want to derail the thread but I would be interested to see what that does to a muntjac. I've seen munties taken with the .308... Don't think the .270 is to much of a overkill though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc'y marc Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 Nice setup put photos of your first kill. Also I have .243 and .270 and I go for the .270 all the time, I mainly shoot roe and no problems. Good look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunkield Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 I have a 6.5 and .223 and will take the .223 out every time if after muntjac The 6.5 is a very mild calibre but still make mess of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
