Picked up my old 30-06 which was redone to the 35 Whelen. Couple guys here, no names mentioned (Scotty, Dr Mike, …) got me interested over a year ago. Went with a Shilen #3, presently at 23”. We put it in a McMillan Mountian Rifle stock. I went with 50 med tan, 25 olive, 25 black. I’m going to mount a Minox 2-10 with #4 reticle in Talleys on it and see how that works.
I don’t have the scope mounted yet, but it seems to handle well and feels light. I was trying to get it between 8-8 ½ lbs and it seems to be right there. I’m going to try to mount the scope over the weekend and try to get out to the range next week and see how things work out. This is going to be my primary with my 300 as back up in October in Colorado.
I’ll try to get better pic’s when the scope is mounted.
