random update.
im loving this combo an setup, 600m dinner plates an most inbetween first up, happy happy. Recoil is manageable for me with the scope setup...
still using RE25, but got AR2217 for down the track..... may stick with RE though as it seems to be consistant at this far into things!
ended up sticking 162 ssts into the 7-08 but havnt done too much hunting with it yet.
