Kevin, if you get any range reports on this I would like to hear them. Considering a Creedmoor after the ultralight.

Re: Mcr 30-06 Hey! That's mine! Kevin, feel free to give my name and number for anyone looking for a refference.

Haven't heard Trumps position on suppressors, but the hearing protection act has been introduced in the house and has several sponsors. With this republican congress, I wouldn't be surprised to see them off the NFA. That being said, I'm not buying anything else, can wise, until it is decided.

I don't want to be a jerk here, but I'll tell you what I think. MSRP on the rifle is 1300. If they are blue printing their actions, and using a premium barrel, there is no reason that they shouldn't shoot better. That being said, at that price point, there is no way the company wouldnt stay...

Here's my initial thoughts, without reading all the posts. #1. Coreloks - try the Hornady SST's or Nosler BT. #2. Factory barrel - sometimes you get a good one, sometimes you don't.

Pretty sure Zeiss turrets are IPHY on that scope, not MOA.(mine is anyway) As far as the set up, If your scope has 68 MOA total travel, its safe to say that you half of that available for "up", if your currently mounted on a level base. That says about 34 MOA is left for elevation, which is...

If weight is the issue, I think your going to find the Leupold scopes will win. As far as the cost of the MK 6, I would go with the MK 4 in a FFP. In that price range, your going to find that weight is sacrificed for ruggedness and repeatability. Swaro Z6 line?

Is it safe to assume its on a 700 action? Ive never had an issue with NF one piece bases and their ultralight rings.

Seems logical that if your at the top of your scopes travel, and still a little low, a 20 MOA rail is going to put you at about center. Also, be mindful that line of sight, is not the line of flight. The bullet could be on the upward slope of its ballistic curve at 25 yds. Where does it shoot...

The stock feels really good. I had a really tight budget on this build, so I decided to give it a try. I'm still waiting on a base that is lost in the postal system, so the range report is on hold. I'm real impressed with the balance of the rifle, just feels good to shoulder.

Hey, that's mine, and the pictures do it no justice. One correction Kevin, its a Hart 1-10. Mounting the scope tonight, range this weekend.

NSX all the way. Repeatability is key. I think your going to find this opinion to be the majority on this forum.

Rifle Basix? Thought I saw one there? I have one as well and I remember it catching my eye somewhere.

Better start paper work to transport NFA items across state lines...
