[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 330942, member: 13285"] I just put together a new medium to long range rifle package for my son who has only just started working and is on a strickt budget. The rifle is a Tikka T3 SS Laminate in .338WM and the scope is a Clearidge 2.5-12.5x42 Ultra XP5. Mounts are EGW rail glued down and fitted out with Leupold 30mm rings. He can update with a ACI/ADI indicator and level when he gets the cash. We sighted it in at 100 yards with some light loads using 225 gn Hornady SP projectiles to run it in. Cleaning between each shot. He then dialed up 9 MOA and put the next two shots into my 10" steel gong @440 yards. Couldn't wipe the smile off his face.:) [IMG]http://members.optusnet.com.au/~wadcutter/mypic34.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://members.optusnet.com.au/~wadcutter/mypic33.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
