[QUOTE="abinok, post: 123453, member: 16"] redbone, The scope is a 6-25x56 millet buck gold. mildot reticle, 30mm tube, with the traditional AO. Good scope. Jimm, Accomidations are taken care of for trips for the forseeable future. Not sure what the bench weighs... im guessing 30-40lbs... may be off by a bit. Im not sure this is the final design im going to stick with, but im getting close. This is the MK3 version. I went with the 95gr berger because of the balance I can get with wind deflection and trajectory. At moderate velocities I can essentially duplicate the wind drift of my favored 300WM load out to 1000yds with a much flatter trajectory. This was intended to be a point and shoot type of gun out to mpbr, and a dial and shoot gun out to 1k...1100 or so. In this role, and with those parameters in mind, the 95gr is a better choice than the 115... mainly because of the trajectory. Its kinda the same reasoning behind most guys choosing the 190SMK over the 220SMK for their 300WMs. Bit more wind drift, much flatter flying.
