    20 mil bases

    They lower your point of impact 20 minutes. This give you more upward elevation adjustment of the reticle, allowing you to click your scope for further ranges.

    First long range gun! .300RUM

    I suggest getting a different scope base, something like a Ken Farrel or Badger Ordnance. I have now seen 2 sets of rear rings for that type of mount go bad. I recently changed mine and now my brothers are distorting as well. I would hate for you to go through the frustration I went through when...

    SG & Y Rifles

    Has anybody had any experiences with SG&Y? I am thinking about having them rebarrel my 300 Rum.

    Nightforce

    I am really looking to shoot a 1000 yards plus so I would like to have at least 20x. I just can't seem to find a scope other than Nightforce that has all the features I want. I would like to have illuminated reticle that isn't mil-dot,side focus and a 30mm tube. Seems like all the Leupolds I...

    Nightforce

    I am in the process of building a 300 RUM. I would really like to put some high quality glass on it. I can't seem to find many places that sale Nightforce scopes.

    I did a search last night and didn't find much on rings and bases so I figured I would put my .02 cents in on Leupold. I had a set of Leupold rings and bases with the dovetailed front and their screw type rear. I went out to check my zero yesterday before my hunting trip this weekend. I could...

    Newb question (long post)

    My main question was how much a click would move the point of impact at further ranges. I think the post by Roy has got me moving in the right direction I just need to go out and field varify my ballistics chart to get this thing whipped.

    Newb question (long post)

    About a year ago I had my 243 win. rebarrled by Shilen. It is a Rem 700 BDL. I had Shilen put a 26" 7HV contour barrel with a short throat ( 65 grn Shilen BR bullets) on it along with a 1.5# trigger. I put the action in a McMillan A3 stock. I feel like this set-up is capable of shooting long...
