[QUOTE="Mike6158, post: 52236, member: 1039"] ?? Can I use my factory rifles for "long range" shooting? Maybe a better way to ask the question is this- I have a Ruger Model 77 in .243, a Ruger Model 77 in 6mm, and a Remington Model 700 in .270. The only one that has a decent scope is my .270. It has a Leupold 3.5 x 10 x 50 Vari-X III mounted on it. I need to change the rings as the scope is very close to touching the barrel. It may even be touching. The reticle in the Leupold is a standard duplex reticle. The .243 and 6mm are actually my two sons rifles. The scopes on them were significanlty cheaper as they tend to destroy most things that they touch [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] (They aren't that bad but I wasn't going to bolt a $300-$400 scope on their rifles). So- with what I have listed- do I have a starting spot or would I be better off with something else? [/QUOTE]
