I won't frighten you wth my age but my son just turned 57:D--I estimate a +25 feet/ sec increse per barrel inch over 24". Member Revolutionary War Veterans Association and NRA Lifer since 1980:eek: overbore

My son jsut purchased a Creedmore - would not take the advice from Dad who gets less than .200" groups with 4350 and neck tuned Lapua brass following the loads I listed earlier. He gave up on hitting an elk in the "boler room" with his Crred and went back to his old standby. Overbore

Sir: I think the rife build can start wit the quality of the brass which is whyy I went with the 6.5X55with Lapua brass and the loads and accuracy are already tested at http://www.accuratereloading.com/65smauser.html This will give you a no neck turn starting point for your barrel which I...

Talked with the techie folks at Burris who suggested a Weaver style level that attaches to the Weaver./pickatinny rifle rail. My mid point reticle height comes in at 2.358". If I make it until the Fall, I turn 80 or more positively, 16 years old five times! Blessings overbore

The forum has listed me as a silver member; however, I should be called a metallic member as I have silver in my hair, gold in my teeth an lead in my *** etts. overbore

That is what I call real world field tests. What figure did you use for scope height . 1.5" or ???? overbore

Scope body is 30mm but no scope level device can be fitted to it; however, a Weaver style rail mount level does fit and is ordered.Since I am using Berger 190gr bullets, their homepage ballistics calculator helps get the 750 yard drop data needed to program this good scope. overbore

Since this scope and custom rifle are not bottom of price point units, Brown is delivering a 30mm scope level and two more boxes of Berger Hunting bullets which will be loaded into the already neck turned and weight sorted new brass. Final rounds will be sorted by bullet runout limits of...

Well, men, in order to make an accurate comment on this new technology scope, one must have one sooo, yes I did. A Pennsylvania seller adverting on "u-buy" was retailing a new in the box unit at $1,349 so I pulled the lanyard and now have one to learn. Quick observations: the scope base has...

Reviewing "E-buy", it appears that the 2016 model has an improved exterior and an upgraded price point to about $1,500 but I cannot find any interior/software upgrades. Does anyone have more specific info? Many thanks, overbore

Cheated and went to the Burris Optics home page where that is tons of great info. Mounting must be to a one or two pc rail mount. They claim yardage out to 1,200 but it requires a drop chart as th aiming dot will not get us there. Wind must be measured then corrected by means of a Mil Dot...

Looking seriously at this scope but have two Q's: How is it mounted securely? and Is the max drop internal calculation set at 500 yards? Laus Deo overbore
