This is a new in the box Thompson Compass II. I bought 2 of these and the first one shot so well, I never shot this one. It is the Compass II with the adjustable trigger. It is chambered in the 6.5 Creedmoor. The barrel is threaded for a suppressor or muzzle brake. Great for someone starting out, or for Christmas. $420.00 shipped to the CONUS.

Agreed. The first one I bought shot less than 1" with random reloads so I never shot the second one.
 
How about $400.00, shipped in time for Christmas??

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
