[QUOTE="MontanaJack, post: 1858347, member: 25389"] Thank you for the suggestions. I ordered a kit to raise the comb height. I also ordered Talley one piece mounts that will lower the scope, leaving about 0.020" clearance. Hopefully, this won't to too tight. FYI, this Howa 1500, 6.5 Creedmoor is amazing for a $600 rifle. I'm getting 0.27" 3 shot groups at 100 yards using 135 gr Berger Classic Hunter seated to recommended OAL using 43.0 gr H4350 with a CCI 200 large rifle primer. My thanks to Berger. I put a question on their website. Within 2 hours one of their balisticians called me and provided an informative history of Berger's experience with the 6.5 Creedmoor with magazines too short to minimize jump to the barrel lands and provided solid, effective recommendations from their product line. Thank you for the support of this forum, Berger, Midway, and Talley. This is an awesome sport!! Let's protect and preserve the 2nd Amendment!!! [/QUOTE]
