[QUOTE="Jay Kyle, post: 998620, member: 347"] I'm planning on building a similar rig - but using a Leupold VX6 4-24x52 Target scope to keep my weight down. I too have a Nightforce on my other guns but it's definitely too heavy for a carry gun - and also important is the 6x magnification range - as a carry gun does likely more work close-in than long range, and I wanted a scope and gun that works well for both purposes. 16-18 lbs recoil puts it at/below a 30-06 so the scope should be able to handle it. The Bushnell Elite ERS is one of their better scopes (old Bausch & Lomb). Just ordered a Weatherby Arroyo in 338/378 - can hardly wait :). BTW How do you like the Assassin Brake? Jay [/QUOTE]
