    The knobs are close but once you get used to it, it's not an issue.

    Ivey Adjustable base with Sightron SIII 10-50 on 6.5 CM

    General rule of thumb I use is 1x of magnification per 100 yards so a mile would be 17 or 18x. And I'd recommend 1st focal plane.

    Ivey Adjustable base with Sightron SIII 10-50 on 6.5 CM

    I have an ivey mount on a cadex defense shadow .375 with a NF atacr. I haven't been able to fully stretch it out to it's capability but the mount is great. Only complaint was that it took 8 weeks to get it when I already had everything else. You'll be happy with it.

    Where to shoot a 20mm

    I know but he said near Chicago. Longest range I know of in Illinois is 600. This area isn't like the west where you can just go out in the desert or mountains. I wish!

    Greetings from Illinois

    There's a couple options in Wisconsin and Indiana out to 1200. I've heard of a place in southern Illinois that goes to a mile but never been there. Several places in the neighboring states to 5-600.

    WTB Berger 300 Win Mag Ammunition 215 Hybrid

    Berger stopped making loaded 215 and 230gr ammo a year ago but some is still around. Federal gold medal berger makes 215gr now. That is meant as the replacement. I believe Federal bought Berger a few years ago. Unfortunately they don't have plans to release loaded 230gr ammo which is what I prefer.

    Nemo Omen

    Nemo specifically only recommends 190gr federal gold medal match or black hills ammo. They don't recommend anything else and the gas blocks can be tricky with anything else. I have a falkor petra which is similar and I never had a problem but only use federal gold medal.

    Rifle Scopes Vortex vs Nightforce

    The vortex is a great scope but I have 4 nightforce scopes and wouldn't use anything else. That being said, the atacr is better than the nx8.

    Rifle Scopes Optics Planet SUCKS

    I live about 20 miles from optics planet. It's like a 30 min drive. I ordered something from them recently that was listed as in stock. It took a full 7 days to get it.
