Looking great bud, and a awesome job on your write up as well. It looks as though the scope/rings are set up as a quick detach?? The sun shade does add a 'serious business' look. BTW, if you're like me you probably put the muzzle brake somewhere where you wouldn't loose it.

So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.

good job. For those interested, once your rifle is level, you can hang a string with a weight like a plumb bob and look through the scope to set the vertical cross hair

Thanks man! The quick detach rings is all I had for low profile rings on hand. I’m going to order some new ones.

Can you guys go out of town and just set up in the mountains and shoot? Or does it have to be at a “Range”?

We can't go anyplace but we have a lot of public places we can set up at shoot. Its pretty easy to just go our and shoot. BUT sometimes its more dangerous to go to the public places than not...…..

True. I know that in Utah you can just drive out to the desert (certain miles away from civilization) and set up and shoot. Some guys shoot a mile (1760yds) with no one else around. Wish I could do that here.
