Vudoo Scope Base

[IamJoHo]

My barreled action came with the 20 moa base. Im looking at going up to the 30 or 40moa for NRL and PRS. Anyone have any thoughts? Also is the Vudoo compatible with any 700 scope base?

If anyone has one laying around they are looking to get rid of let me know.

 

[Hey You]

A lot will depend on your scope and how much total elevation you have to work with. I have a total of 60 MOA in the rail/mount. 40 in the rail and 20 in the Spuhr. Zero at 25 yards and have more than 500 yards on the turret. YMMV.

I am running a PST Gen2.
I thinking the 40 probably is the better way to go. Not sure if I want to spend the money on a Spuhr though. But maybe just going with a 60 moa base would be the best route.

On my 20moa I was able to hit out to 300 but lost it when trying to get out to 400. 500 sounds like even more fun.

But this does bring up another question 25 or 50 yard zero?

40moa would be the max for a PST Gen2, and it might be pushing it at its limits. 60moa would definitely be way too much and you won't be able to zero your rifle.. I'd go with 30-40.

Wouldn't be able to zero at 25 or 50? Or are you saying it wouldn't be able to zero to either?

I ordered my Vudoo with a 30. Tried a 60. It worked with my K525i but literally had the scope bottomed out for 25 yards. Now on a 40.

I think any 700 compatible base will work, but the Vudoo bases have pins to key into the top of the action for extra support.

 

[IamJoHo]

Okay I think I will stick with the 40 for now. Hopefully dont have to get taller rings.

 

[IamJoHo]

So is 25 what most are zeroing at? I am set at 50 for now.

I run 28mm (~1.10") height rings with the K525i and that was no issue with 30, 40, or 60 even with the sunshade and NV bridge on the MPA BA Comp.

 

[littlepod]

25 and 50 is the same zero more or less. I zero at 25 / 50 depending on what range I have access to.

 

[IamJoHo]

Sounds good. Will give 40moa and 25yards a try.

The Vudoo is spaced for the screw holes .86" for front and rear bridges..... Remington 700s are .862 front bridge and .607 rear bridge if memory serves.....

Edited to add...... I love my Vudoo!!!!!

So definitely order from Vudoo then.

Yes, if your looking for a one piece mount..... Definitely order from Vudoo!

Love the Larue LT840 Mount!!!!

LaRue Lt840, solid.

I'm gonna have to stick with my $60 Vortex rings for now. I'm already close to sleeping on the couch and still a lot more to buy. Definitely want to upgrade to some better rings in the future though.
