Nice VonGruff. Looks set up with mounts, but are you using it with the peep on the cocking piece? With your loads I'd figure you have since put glass on it for taking advantage of it's capabilities. Just curious but do you have a preference on brand of brass?
Ingwe, I figure being off .5 x 2mm is close
That 6x42, though light, just is larger than I like on some rifles aeshetically, etc. Even as E calls the eyebox on the 42 very large-and it is, the 36 is fine and has likely more exit pupil than my eyes will dilate. Current coatings are all the better on the latest FX-II.
I do like SS/Walnut, just one man's flavor (yes a looney by admission). Often Walnut, checkered, feels really good in hand. I do make sure any wood stock is shooting consistent and hitting to POA. My SS/walnut Dakota Predator 6mmBR shoots as good shooting as it looks, 5/8" groups at 200yds, the 55 above shot 1.1" so I was ok with that....
