Hi guys
Just wondering if any of you have tried Swarvoski’s PBC. I know other scope manufacturers do something similar and perhaps they work just as well. I was very impressed with the results and thought I would share. The picture attached shows a target where I took 2 shots at 200 yards then dialed in 300 took 2 more shots and so on till I fired 2 at 500 yards. My range didn’t go out any further so I couldn’t continue.
Over the 4 different distances I finished up with a 8 shot group. There was a breeze blowing from the right side. The caliber used was a 257 Weatherby which I know to be very accurate for the testing. The final results was a 1.7” group from 200 yards to 500. Wondering if anyone else use the personal Ballistic Cam.

Very interesting way of testing. Fantastic grouping!
 
I use the pbc system on my favorite .300 wm and my 7mm stw and get results similar to yours out to 750yards which is all the scope can offer. It is a very good system as you would expect from Swarovski. I used my .300 wm on my first safari in your neck of the woods and it was awesome-range, dial, shoot!
Beautiful rifle yours is on! I don’t shoot game that far out, but lots of fun with targets-water filled milk jugs are my favorite

Glad to hear your having similar results. My dial goes up to 950 yards, perhaps the 1.7-10 x 42 has more vertical adjustment or it’s the flat trajectory of the 257 Weatherby.
I don’t shoot crazy ranges either but it sure takes the guess work out of placing your bullet where you want it at 500 yards.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
