Re: Newb question on M1A1 mounts The ARMS 18 is a good mount. I don't know of any with 20 MOA. You will need to build up a cheekpiece on the rifle to get a good cheekweld. You can add a Karsten or add a stock pack built up with some foam pieces.

Re: detachable mounts for bolt guns I have been thinking about a set of the 2 pc QR Larue Ring Sets. I'm using Nightforce UL and Leupld MK4 rings on rifles now. You have to watch out running a one piece with 20 MOA built in if you already have a 20 MOA base on your rifle.

Re: McMillan A3 vs HTG ADJ for long range hunting I have a HTG fixed cheekpiece on a rifle now. It is more typical of a hunting type stock. If I could do it over it would have an adjustable cheekpiece. I really like the looks of the A3 Sporter. I bet it is a comfortable stock to shoot. Maybe...
