[QUOTE="Hbomb11, post: 1541684, member: 106173"] I run seekins rings and picatinny base. They are spendy but well worth it. As far as bullets bergers vld (1 kill), sierra gamekings ( 1 kill), and nosler partitions (6 kills) have all worked well for me on elk. All elk traveled less than 20 yards before expiring. But I do have agree with everyone else on the scope power. Lowest power of 8 could prove to be very difficult if you are hunting in any kind of woods. I have taken 8 bulls in the last 8 years on DIY hunts on public land. I have taken 3 around 400 yards, 1 at 192, and the rest were under 100 yards closest being around 40. I understand though if that is the only scope you have. [/QUOTE]
