We have a Night Force ATACR 7-35x56mm F1 ZeroStop .1mrad DigIllum PTL Mil-XT C613 and a Valdada 200 MOA Base on top of a BAT Action with a Integrated 20MOA rail. McMillan XIT 3Way Adjustable stock.
Copied our mount system off of Rum Man last year for a .338LMAI.
Thanks Rum Man!!!
It's way past time for Rum Man to get shooting Long Range again ! Ha ha
Just thinking of that Nightforce you have gives me Goose Bumps ! Lol
Yes sir, well kinda. That scope was advertised as 100 moa and when I checked it it had more like 104, so I had at least 96.
You inspire us!!!!
I would stay around a 1:9 twist depending on the weight/length for .338. Best results for a Berger 300gr-OTM is in a 1:9.35.
Just an opinion.
I have been playing with the 1/10 twist out to 1.72 miles ...maybe it's time for a new build with the 1.94 twist !

Rum Man we been following you for a while, I thought you were shooting 1:9.4s.
What bullets you shooting at 3K?
Thanks

Most of my ELR has been about 4000 '.
I have a place to do some testing at 3200 yards back east about 846 ' ..this new 300 Rum will get pushed way out soon ! Load work first. 245gr to 3000 yards plus is my goal

Must be great working and building your Daughters home. God Bless you and your family.
Sure miss that satisfaction in building something like a HOME!
We still have two .338 builds since last year waiting to be assembled (about $15k + in components). have everything just need to turn/chamber the barrels. Had a few setbacks with my neck injury. Also have another dozen builds going on.
Hopefully do some "F" Class shooting next week just to tune up.
Sure want to get back to ELR, but limited to ranges. The ARENA here in South GA is EXTREMLY NICE out to 2,500 yds. But the Government has taken over most ranges for training.

Have to get with some land owners in North GA on Power/Gas Lines to get even close to 3,500. Believe it or not we have mountains in N. GA and limited distance to shoot.
Take care Rum Man
