With the Swede brass is readily available. I’ve got 6 Swedish Mausers and a CZ550 American. Lapua is my choice of brass. Either way you go will be a good choice. Since the CM came on the market bullet selection has greatly increased.

I have same scope, and love it. Clear edge to edge, tracts well, smooth as glass.

I’ve got that same Vortex only with the angled eye piece. Love the clarity but it’s to heavy to pack. I’d go with a smaller lighter Leupold if I had it to do over

I hang my soft and hard cases from the ceiling on bicycle hangers next to my safes.

BOG make a good light weight tripod. Several attachments available, u shaped rubber lined, spotting scope mounts. Strong enough to use as a hiking pole

I’ve got both a V-4 and a V-6 Zeiss. They both have extremely clear glass and tract back to zero. The only down side is the rectical cross hair is thicker than the Leupole.

My son and I have been using the Maven B1 10x42 for several years. Great edge to edge clarity

Well said

Check Gorman Ranches face book page. Matt Cousins is the outfitter

Welcome, you can’t go wrong with a 6.5. Lots of bullet choices.

For me, a straight eye piece is easier to get on target. I have an angle eye piece on my Razor great for target shooting once you get on target. Most guides I’ve hunted with like the straight spotters.

Look at the Maven B-1s. American made, outstanding clarity edge to edge. Only draw be is they’re a bit on the heavy side.

Norma, and Nosler has been my choice. I’ve tried Hornady and have never had any luck using it in multiple firings. Seems their brass is too hard.

I got the 10 Edition

I’ve used the Alaska Guide (Alaska Classis) for the last 4 years on Aoudad & Mule Deer hunts in west Texas. It has room for my binos, range finder, headlamp, small flashlight and extra batteries.
