I helped a guy out with a 708, I'm sure it was one of these.

He took that scope off & put a VX3 on it.

I bet you go for the 120s..........

Well Greg I will say that you were right about your comment regarding the 120gr HP privi partizan ammo it shot 1.5" or just under at 100 meters the 140gr SPBT Privi shot around 3-4" at 100 so I will have to get some more of the 120gr PPU to keep me going till I can start reloading for it would love to see what it can do with a 120gr under some 2208, will be taking scope off in the next couple of months once I can get another redfield or otherwise a bushnell banner that precision optics scope is horrible without finger adjustment as for eye relief well I will have to sit the front ring back a notch to sit the scope back further to get the right eye relief and maybe adjust the trigger down a bit from the factory set 3lb too. Other than that bloody nice rifle to shoot
