I have an older 3-10.5 Leupold VariX III that has no use, so I got one of Armalites one piece monts and stuck it on top of my 16in carbine to better dispatch of some crows. This wont be a permanent thing as I have a 512 Eo that usually sits in place of the scope.
Question is this: Most of the shots will be within 150 yards, if that. Im pretty open to bullet weight, I have about 100 or so Federal Premium 69gr laying around, along with a fairly large assortment of every thing you can think of from Wolf, Winchester, and 193s so whatever you think is best for popping crows at this range,im all ears, lastly, Considering I use the 69gr Federals, what range should I sight in for that will allow for the least ammount of compinsation should the crow be inside/outside of 150 or so yards? Lastly, we are not talking about a $5000 custom setup here, its a box stock 16in Bushmaster patrolmans carbine. Granted not the absoulte best tool for this platform, but its what I got.
