[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1250424, member: 4566"] Nothing I have right now is really a typical LR rig. I mainly hunt from a vehicle so weight isn't a big issue. I actually roll around with a swiveling 150lb shooting table in my receiver hitch. So I use a AR-10 in 6.5 Creed. .5MOA all day. 143ELD-X @2850. Wish it was a SAUM but it shoots well. The scope is not normal either, it's a Burris Eliminator III, glass sucks, but I run that gun for speed. Point, click, hold, bang. Multiple bangs if needed. So much faster than lazing, input data, dial/use reticle and then fire. I can engage very fast out to 800 on deer or 1300 on yotes. My other truck gun is a 32lb 338 Edge. NF 5.5x22. Savage action, 30" Hart, homemade plywood stock, Basics trigger, Lug yada yada. Shoots 300SMKs at 2850 with ES under 10 fps. 1/2 MOA out to 1800 all day long and recoils like a 223. Neither one of these is a typical LR build, they just fit my particular style really well. [/QUOTE]
