    I was planning on buying a murphy set up, rings and a 10 MOA rail. I didnt think I would need a 20, but if you guys are saying I will I may just go for that, it idnt a whole lot (if any) more. the only problem I'm hjaving with buying the 300 WM right now is the price of ammo, I cant reload right...

    my journey to LRS skill

    I wish it was in Victoria, that's where I live (assuming you talking about the BC one, I don't know of any others).

    my journey to LRS skill

    i do and dont agree with you on gun laws. I do think it shouldn't take 6-8 weeks for my licence to get here, thats insane. we also have ALOT of different guns we cant buy here, anything that has a large clip size, fully auto, small, no silencers or suppressors. But having to take a test to prove...

    yeah i definitely dont have 2400 to buy a FFP scope from them, any idea how wide the actual has mark is? like how it translates to MOA? Ive tried to call and email but I get either a busy tone or an email saying they are getting way to many emails, any help would be great. Thanks, Evan
