How many clicks.. or MIL/Moa does the scope have?

How far out can you reach with it?

The S&B Precision Hunter scope has 48 graduations on the elevation turret that are .200" in adjustment.......it allows about a maximum shot of a 600yds with a 100 yd zero depending on caliber/ballistics.

I just got the rifle so I have not even shot this bad boy yet.....

I have a S&B 4-16 Precision Hunter comming in a few days.

The BDC turret on mine only goes to 32.. so, I wont get 600 yards. Maybe 4-500 with a 30-06

The 4-16 Precision Hunter is very limited in elevation travel, but if you can get to 400 or 500 yds for hunting, no worries!!

It’s a nice rifle. Probably a good thing the rifle features a muzzle brake, as the bolt handle’s positioning looks like it could leave a mighty large bruise on the shooter’s trigger finger under the full recoil of a 338.
