ok... Long time lurker. Became a paid member today and this is my first post.
I was an infantry officer for 9 years in the national guard. I only ever shot with iron sight and red dot and feel like preparing and competing in some PRS and 22 NRL would be a good way to add skills to my marksmanship.
I have just purchase in order to start my journey:
1) a Christian arms MPR in 300 win mag (this will be for hunting only)
2) a ruger precision rimfire
3) a cz457 in their precision chassis.
I plan to add a 6mm once I have a comfort with the skills required and can get some primers and hand loading equipment.
scopes: I have 2 nightforce nx8 4-32 with the tremor reticle and a vortex venom 5x25 with the ebr-7c mrad reticle.
my plan was to put the vortex on the Ruger, and the nightforce scopes on the other 2 rifles.
What rings should I get for the Ruger to mount the vortex to it?
the 30mm ultralight separate mounting rings (pictures are for the MPR (it's what nightforce told me I should get
) is this right?
the unimount (pictured) was what nightforce told me to get for the ruger to mount the other NX8. but that puts me at 50 moa? and the nx8 only goes to 90 elevation adjustment??? so no clue there I though one should stay below 50% of your total elevation for the moa of your mounts???. and no worries because I want to put the vortex on there now and the nx8 on the cz457.
i purchased a 25 moa rail for the CZ from scar ( https://triggersbyscar.com/ols/products/25-moa-extended-picatinny-rail-for-cz-457 ) to add to the CZ to put the nightforce unimount that I have (20moa) for the nx8. that would put be at half of the elevation adjustment.
Is this good thinking for this stuff?
I also have an atlas tripod. I bought three bags from armegeddon: the schmedium game changer, the fat bag, and the rear squishy. I am planning on a tab gear sling.
I need 3 magazines for 22 NRL I think (who do you recommend for both the Ruger and the CZ) and what kind of carrier?
what else do I need to get out the gates on this? I was thinking of a weighted arc rail for the atlas bipod attachment? and possibly a mag release extension.
thanks in advance for your help..
there seems to be so much to navigate... In the army they just issue you stuff and you figure out the capabilities and go from there. It is definitely more challenging when you have to make your own purchase decisions.
