Hence my earlier , without the time to do the figuring online I was wondering what his MOA setting on his scope was for 240 yards…. Not that it can’t be done, just I’d like to see the footage recreated. Long live the MAGA King

However I was curious about the size of the rabbit the feller was shooting at 100 yards....Not sure I could see a rabbit at 100 yards, let alone hit it with open sights. you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

Good used ones go for $700.00-$1,500. Yes the 541 is the way to go. Very nice rifle and shoot very good. Ammo is a big part if making a rifle shoot good.]

It’s a tack driver, standard velocity cci is what shoots best, one ragged hole groups. I have heard others with negative experiences with this gun but I must have gotten a good one. Lord knows how many boxes and buckets of shells I’ve ran through her , plinking. Feeds nice , no complaints here. No reason for me to buy any other!
