Eagle1899's mention of the 6X,got me thinkin' about the lineage again,if only because it's been a spell since I've gunned the 10's.
Some early 10's were fair to middlin'(I've gunned 'em),then they turned fucking dog shit(I've gunned 'em)...but I've not banged around with a new/new one. I'd be curious to hear thoughts,by anyone who has,as the erector travel is juicy.
What's going down,is a COLOSSAL Anschutz Shoot Out and folks is scrambling on how to out-nigger eachother for braggin' rights. I'm a smidge behind the curve,because I got in a fucking hurry and didn't have my receiver D&T'd,so opted a BKL unitized base/ring platform,which has taken a purty good fucking beating in all fairness. Downside to that equation,is that it is a flat system and I'm tossing away a minimum of 25MOA of erector travel,aboard my Mk4 M1 10X which rides that saddle. Beano just might have the erector /reticle/base melding to squeak past me,without my swapping glass(I could slam a Mk4 M1 16x on top,but prefer the 10X for utility) and this possibility has me thinkin' out loud.
I've 90MOA total travel in the 10x of which I retain 58MOA with a 50yd zero(if I recall correctly) and it takes 100MOA on the nose,to get to the 550yd line with it's preferred Camp Run fodder. The 25MOA rail would grant 83-ish of travel and 5Mils is another 18-ish,for a total of 100+.
Now back to the SWFA SS 10x.
They often grant nearly 150MOA of total travel,have another 10Mils in the reticle(new Mil-Quad reticle) and I'm thinking 600yd dope would be a breeze to conjure,even from my existing mount system. Sooooooo...I'm ALL fucking ears in how good these fucking things track,as per the current crop and whether or not they'll still take a goddamned lick?
Figure someone is slummin' one,if only on the sly.(grin)
Obliged................
