So I'm building up a long range hunting/target rifle and am needing some sanity check/input on my components list.
Right now I have the following:
-Defiance AnTi short action (rem 700 short action not model 7) with defiance anti 20 MOA base
-Proof research 20" pre fit .308 barrel (Will be selling and going with a 24" 6.5 creed pre fit shortly)
-Manners LRH with M5 mini chassis
-Triggertech special
What I am going to be ordering shortly:
-Hawkins hunter DBM
-Hawkins hunter 4 round mag
-Accurate Mag 6.5 creed 3.05 double stack AICS pattern 5 round mag
What I need input on:
-Plans are to order either a night force NX8 4-32 or a bushnell 3.5-21 elite tactical dmr3. On my barreled action I've tested a NF NXS 3.5-15 with a Larue LT104 (1.5") mount on the base and there is about 3/4 inch gap from the bottom of the scope to the barrel and from the bolt handle to the objective. I am planning on going with NF ultralight rings and figured the 1" height might be the best option. I am looking for insight from people with either of these scopes on a Defiance AnTi action on what height rings would be best.
-SRP or LRP Lapua 6.5 creed brass? (I have both large and small rifle primers on hand)
