Counter Sniper Crusader - I mean this thing is loaded like a cheeseburger at mc donalds... and the Flourite is good for my teeth!

Its mounted on nothing at the moment, just dont have anything worthy of this beast that can withstand the 485 degree temp...I mean what good is a rifle that will combust before the scope will, right?  

Havent hit any targets yet but it does have Autoclabable decon and viton...2 must haves.


Proprietary-Hi Flourite Leaded 99.997 % Pure Optical Glass, -230-+485°F degree stable Bertrillium-Zantitium™ multicoated optics on both primary, secondary and interior lens groups.




 

6/25-56 Weapon Mountable Optical Gunsights

My 6.5 Creed, trued Remmington action, 26" Krieger 1-8.5" barrel. Gunsmithing done by Long Rifles Inc. McMillan A-5 with Badger bottom metal.  Scope is the SS 5-20x50, in this pic it has Badger rings but since switched out to Aadland. Base is a Talley 20 MOA.
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

Custom 338 Lapua Magnum (built by Mike Cuypers of Bijou Creek), 30 inch Rock Creek heavy barrel,  Stiller TAC338 action in McMillan A-5 stock, Jewell trigger set to 1lb.   Cerakoted.  Hensoldt 6-24x72 scope (my wife bought it for me) mounted with Near custom Alphamount.  Longest shot, so far, 500 yards.

I may yet pull the trigger on a Countersniper scope, someday.  Just like this...
