So I'm torn on the new .308.
Factory loads: Nosler Accubond 165gr @ 2,700 fps out of a 24" 1:10 barrel.
Custom loads: Nosler Accubond 165gr @ 2,780 fps out of a 24" 1:10 barrel.
My handloads have a 42 moa (35ft) drop @1,000y with a 100y zero w/ a 1.5" HOB. My new scope has an 80 moa range, 40 up and 40 down.
Do I really want to put an MOA canted mount on this thing even though I've got 30 MOA in hash marks on the etched reticle? I'll be 20" low if I dope it, but have enough marked hold over to be 23 feet (seriously) high at 1,000y.
