Very nice! Congrats to your FIL!

Merry Christmas to you all!

I have a question for those more qualified than I am to help answer. I want to start shooting longer ranges, out to 1000 to start and wonder if I NEED to have a Chronograph to get velocity readings vs using what’s on the box and then just Truing Velocities with a Ballistic App/Tool such as the...

Congratulations! Very nice buck!

Thank you sir. Two Words....CANCER SUCKS. Will be headed to MD Anderson after Jan 1st once she's healed from last surgery. In God's hands!

I just mounted the same scope on a 20 moa rail. I had NF Ultralight Rings both Low (.885") and Medium (1.00"). Both had plenty clearance with the NF Covers on. I do have an adjustable cheek piece with the Manners LRH (Long Action) stock and decided on the Mediums for my set up.

Very nice! Congratulations!
