    Every time I've bought or tried a different brand I have lived to regret it, or given it back, except Kahles but then they turn the wrong way.... so yes even Kahles

    TT bought Premier Reticles. Not so new but still awesome.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Would not be without it, all the others I tried, the balance on the rifle was terrible.

    I'm loving the Sako 75 style monte carlo cheek piece. The Rifle shot very well with the factory stock so hopefully it stays the same or improves.

    @Danny

    I collected my M595 from Andrew (7mmsaum) last night, here's a quick pic of it all finished and bedded into the McMillian Sako Hunter stock, to say i'm stoked with the way its come up is an understatement! The quality of Andrew's bedding job and the fit and finish he has achieved is outstanding, and he turned it around in under a week! Looking forward to getting it out on the hill now.
