[QUOTE="devins, post: 1042900, member: 27441"] I have narrowed the rifle down to the 7mm Rem Mag with the hand loads of 165 gr accubonds it loves. It has gotten the job done many times and can be rigged out as light as any rifle I have and much lighter than anything I normally shoot for long range. My question is which scope to mount on it. I have 1" rings on it at the moment and I have a 3.5-10 x 50 Leupold VX3 with the Boone and Crockett reticle that works with my range finder but I would need a set of 30 mm rings. That is a viable option. I have a Zeiss Conquest in 3-9 x 50 mm that is a 1" tube and would sit right over and I can have a turret made for it in time to go, it is super clear but is only a 9 power. And I have looked at buying a VX 3 in 4-14 x 42 with the Boone and Crockett reticle and a 1" tube. If I use an existing scope I have I was going to put a McMillan's hunters edge on it. I don't want to get too busy of a system is why I am leaning to the BC reticle because that has worked for me well so far, or to just have an accurate range and dial if needed as the Zeiss would do.
