The scope in the first picture is definitely a Nightforce, I have no idea which model. Great scope, I have a few of them.

Shot my Savage .338 the other day at 1767 yards (1 mile + 7 yards), thanks to my new Bushnell fusion 1600 arc range finder (nice to be able to range that far). 73.9 MOA correction (turrets + mil hold overs). Estimated spread 3.5 feet. Its 0.5″ at 100 yards. Load: 300 gn sierra match king of course, with 86.5 gn of Retumbo. Muzzle velocity avg. 2648 fps. Nikko Sterling 6-24X 56mm obj scope, which has 63 turret MOAs total but 6 to 7 MIL lengths depending on how you use it. Using Knights Armament ballistic program(KAC Bullet Flight Military Version 3.1.0) on my iphone. The farthest I will be able to sight targets is 2000 yrds based on available scope adjustments and how much the bullet falls. Next step is measure exact ” spread at 1000, 1500, 1760, & 2000yrds. Time to go to home depot for that board, its 4×8′ ply wood usually right?

I am waiting on (and not patiently) the arrival of my new 110BA, and have opted to go with Horas “Falcon” 5-20X50 optics, ASLI (angle-slope-level-indicator). Any rec. on bipod legs other than harris?

Thanks in advance

I would skip out on the Schmidt & bender and go for a Nightforce Mildot with mil turrets. first focal plane is a plus too.

The disclaimer underthe photo says, “Jason removed his eye protection for this photo. We recommend that shooters ALWAYS wear ANSI-certified eye protection.”

Yet, in the video, Jason loads a round and fires without eye protection. Not good…

To answer John V., the article in this months American Rifleman shows:
Hornady 250-gr. HBPT @ 300 yards
1.85″ / 4.16″ / 3.27″ (avg.)
Average of six factory loads (10 shot groups) was 3.38″
Handloads achieved sub-1/2 MOA @ 1000 yards.
