Went out this afternoon to do some shooting. I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to try my new Leupold 6.5X20X50 MK4 TMR on my 338 Lapua Improved. I was really impressed with the the new MK4, especially the TMR. About time Leupold switch to glass itched reticule. I like the way Leupold designed the TMR. It is almost like an IOR MP-8 dot reticule except the dot is missing. I like that better! because there's nothing there to obscure the target, especially when aiming at small target. There is also a vast improvement on glass coating on these new MK4. I could see the difference when compared with the old MK4. Overall, I'm very pleased. Posted Image

By the way here's the 3 shot group on steel at 525 yards. The 300 grain SMK did a number on my steel target. You can see the difference on the impact energy when compared with the 308 at the same distance. You can see the indent by the 155 grain Scenar that was painted over. Posted Image

Nice group, DF. Keep it up.

Yep! Not bad, considering that I didn't have an aiming point. I just centered the crosshair and fire.

nice shooting.

You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.
