[QUOTE="Broz, post: 724523, member: 7503"] Yes if you stack these it will give you 40 MOA which will be too much in my opinion for the total elevation your scope has. The PST you ordered has a total of 65 moa. So if you install 40 moa of base you not be able to get a 100 yard zero as you will be roughly 8 moa up when the scope is all the way down. My best guess is that would give you a zero in the 600 yard area. Also I don't like to bottom the turrets out so with your scope and a total of 65 moa that limits you to a base with a maximum cant of around 20 or 25 moa. I would be surprised if the HS stock does not have swivels. I don't think I have seen one that does not. But if it comes with no swivels adding them is not a hard job. They can be purchased on the net pretty easily from someone like Brownells. For most field use I like the Harris 9~13" swivel bipod. It is the best height for most hunting applications from a prone position. If you are going to shoot from a bench then a 6~9" may be more desirable. But I hardly ever use a bench as I like to practice for field shooting. Suggestions? Don't forget to add an anti-cant level to your program. If you are dialing shots in you will need one to keep the windage on. I believe this rifle comes with a EGW base. I do not care for them and I would be for adding a better quality base. If not please at least do a proper installation and epoxy bed the base to the receiver. Jeff [/QUOTE]
