Super clean. How far have you taken her out?

1000 yards so far. I’m using Berger 140gr Hybrid Target bullets, and I’m pretty happy with how it performs. Rifle is much more accurate than I’m capable of shooting lol

I like it, it’s been a great entry level scope for long range shooting. But, having looked through better glass, I see where this scope falls short lol. But for sub $1000, I don’t really know if there’s anything better.

Anything placed between the ring and the tube — tape, rubber, cloth, heat‑shrink, even “friction tape” — does three things:
Reduces metal to metal friction, prevents the ring from fully seating, creates uneven pressure points. The torque is absorbed by the cloth so get rid of it.

your rig makes my jigglys tingle, but a 6.5 creedmoor is already slow enough, i prefer a 24 inch.

Ya I don't get what hes hating on here..
I swear some dude still think 30-06 or some other heavy recoil cartridge are ELD rounds, lol when the best shooters in PRS are shooting over a 1000 yards with neutered 6mms.
