    50moa elevation on a 20moa base, 7mm magnum, 162 amax around 3150fps, Yay or nay? Without having a drop chart infront of me what range would that get me out to, and would I be winding too far to sight in?

    They are sloping foward, so when your scope is mounted you will need to wind it down alot more to get the same zero at 100 compared to a flat base. This then turns into more elevation adjustment up for long range shots.
    If its guns, tits or tyres it's going to cost you lots of money

    Got the chrony up here Puku, and the 06 thanks to Wildman (I forgot it ) Why don't we have a play with the rifles?

    On scopes. What range are you working to? Why not go fixed?
