[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1529116, member: 68875"] If you plan on shooting a sub-175gr bullet, the 1:9" will be fine. You stated 140-168, so there you go. I have a 1:9" on my .280AI and shoot the 175 Bergers with excellent accuracy out past 1200 yards. I also like as low of rings as possible. With the 44mm objective, even with the 30mm tube, lows will work great with a 20MOA rail and a heavy sporter contour. Here is a .280AI w. Proof Sendero Light, Seekins 20MOA Picatinny rail, Seekins 30mm "low" rings, Premier 3-15x50 scope.
