Are you getting the standard cheytec chamber? Or did you go with one of the improved ones? Rob is doing mine in 375 BAS.
What scope are you guys using for ELR?

Cool. I'm starting from scratch with the 375 so still have to get everything. My other ELR is a 308 Baer built by Gary Ocock here in AZ.
Which recknagel is this can i see photo..im been wanted to try this rings..but not enough reviews i see
Now with the 7x35 ATACR on order with an ETA of maybe June I need to decide on mounting and increased elevation. I have 50moa rail already. Options I'm considering are:
- ARC M10 one piece base with additional moa and a Charlie Tarac.
- An Ivey adjustable base
- ???
It is funny but I was a serious doubter of the Charlie Tarac when I first saw it at shot show. I'm sold though and it is what we see people winning with. I'm looking forward to seeing a March Genesis on the line but that is some serious coin for glass...

Whoa, I thought the Genesis was a 6x-60x? What's this 4-40, was that a prototype?
Yes this is a 4-40 prototype . Apologies for poor quality phone photo through the scope , image is very much
better in person . Glass is very good , reticle is easy to use and not too busy . Tracking was within 0.23 % ,
it has a wide angle eyepiece which gave the impression of a much larger exit pupil , so easy to get a great
sight picture . ( actual exit pupil , is front lens size divided by max zoom power )
It’s physically much smaller than the 6-60 Genesis , so looks more at home on conventional rifles such as the
6.5 x47 in the quoted post . On a big Magnum , I’d run the 400 MOA 6-60 : this 4-40 model will be excellent for
guys wanting to ELR their everyday calibers . It has around 90 MILS travel , enough to get your 6.5 to 3k if you
need to .

Very cool, when will the 4-40x be available? 300 minutes is more than enough for my .375 cheytac to get out to 3000+. Will the 4-40x cost less than the 6-60x?
I currently run a 10-60 x 56mm High Master with a Recknagel adjustable and a Tarac. The glass is totally usable at high mags, March is definitely ahead of the pack on resolution. The piggybank is slowly getting to a Genesis but now I might wait and see especially if the 4-40x is cheaper.
Not sure when 4-40 will get released , a lot of testing to do yet . We need to get a lot of rounds down on
a 50 first , March have a very high G recoil test rig in Japan , but there’s no substitute for real world field
testing . I think the price will be slightly less than the 6-60 , but not much . The amount of precision
machining required is just the same as it’s big brother , there’s just a bit less material involved . The 6-60
is ready now and should be slowly trickling into stock worldwide . March / Deon only assemble a few scopes
per day , so this will always remain a boutique high end product .
The High Master lens system is very good as you mentioned , resolution is so good I find myself using
the Genesis prototypes to stare at wildlife and terrain a long way out , if conditions allow .
