[QUOTE="Oklahoma76, post: 841816, member: 70794"] Yes on the reloading. My parts list is all been approved on the handloader site I posted to. Lots of research done there as well. It's at around 1200$ since I had nothing for reloading before. Ordering mostly from midway usa. I was planning on using a mildot reticle and ranging with that. One of my uncles whom I target shoot with allot has one and every time we shoot he is calling out ranges for us and when he does I consistently hit my targets, so he is right on the money. He says it takes a little while to get used to but isn't hard to learn and get good at and then your not left any dependency on additional gear with battery requirements. I have never ranged with a milldot reticle but he has promised to show me the ropes out in the field and I have been watching allot of instructional videos on it also. If I go with the USO scope I was going to get the "[URL="http://www.usoptics.com/scope/product/viewlargeimage/id/718"]MDMOA[/URL]" reticle and if the NF Beast then the "[URL="http://nightforceoptics.com/reticles/MOAR/"]MOAR[/URL]" reticle. Much thanks to all the people who have posted with help but it leads me to another question. When doing a custom build like you all have described is it common that all of the back and forth between you and your gunsmith is done via phone and then parts mailed to him or should the smith be located within driving distance and done in person? EDITED PS - Does anyone know about these two gunsmiths I found in Oklahoma?
