Bang for buck, H&F (name is mud on this forum) were selling Leupold VX-3i 4.5-14x40 CDS Turret for $860 a little while ago. Even at full price, I think it's a good scope. Personally, I don't think...

Something based on an ‘08 case would probably be adequate to 500-600yd with ELD-X ammo and the right scope. 6.5CM, 7/08, and 308 are all viable options, with a lot less recoil and barrel-raping than...

Hi Hiawatha, I did notice when holding the two scopes in the store the VX3 was more or less half the size of the VX5. It's definitely one of my deciding factors.

Brian Litz has an article somewhere on this - basic gist was it is impossible physics for a bullet to settle down and get more accurate at range e.g be 2 moa at 100 yards and then 0.5 at 600

Yep, all those will easily fit in the Sako Long range XL action or the M10. Im not aware of any of the Norma Magnums coming as factory offerings but I do know 6.5PRC is in the works.
