I replaced the 2x Burris scope on my 243 Encore with a 2-7 Burris. MUCH better. Took it out today with a few different loads I put together for our upcoming gun season here in MS. All groups were good at 100 but I'm going with the hottest. 39 grs of RE15, Win brass, CCI BR2 primers, and 85gr Barnes TSXs. This load had no pressure signs and printed around .75" from the prone off a pack. Hope to put up some pics of a big doe or two next Saturday!!!

Nice! My XP-100 shoots a little over 40gr of Varget with 70gr NBTs. It shoots very, VERY well.

Good luck!! I have two and a half more weeks until our deer season starts.

I am shooting that same 70gr NBT with the varget in mine. Seems to be a very good combo


If it jams force it! If it breaks it needed replacing anyway.
