Ok I am new to long range shooting and absolutely love it. I currently run a mossberg night train atr 100 chamberd in 308 with 6x24x50 super swat barska scope. I have only gone out around 600 yrds, I'm trying to focus on fundamentals rather than distance. Most of the time I just shoot between 100-300 yrds. This set up is perfect for me as a beginner. But it does limit me in a lot of ways. I am picking up the ruger rpr 6.5 creedmore and mounting the vortex pst 6x24x50 w/ moa adjustments. The ruger rpr has a 20 moa picatinny rail. Will I have enough moa to get to 1000 yrds And further ? I'm sorry if this is a dumb? Please be patient with me as I am new and absolutely obesesed with long range shooting. Also if any body has tips and suggestions I am all ears. Thank you.

Yes you will have enough adjustment.
I ran a 6X24 FFP PST in Mils with a 20 Moa rail and had no problem at 1k.

Read everything from the above sticky, most of your long range questions will be answered.
As for gear selection, buying the best you can afford is always advised. If you let people know your budget, they can give you options that will work.

I have the Burris XTR rings on multiple rifles. They are a good price and have been good rings for me.
Seekins rings are great, as are Vortex rings (which Seekins makes).

Vortex PMR's or the Seekins Precision (they are the same just a little bit different heights).
These will most likely be all I ever run. They just plain work and don't break the bank.

ARC M10 rings are my favorite, but not sure they would work for your application.. I would think the extra highs would work.. These rings are very well designed, but the seekins/vortex rings are good ones as well..
Regardless of your budget, Seekins / Vortex rings are a great choice , you can usually pick up a pair in the PX for a very fair price.
What ^he said. If you are still learning, it won't be hard converting from MOA to MIL. I recommend the switch so you have an easier time talking with other shooters and spotters when you really start to stretch your range.
