With a good fitting stock and scope friendly cheek weld, eye box doesn't seem to be that big a deal.
The relatively short ER on this 8 twist .22-250 isn't a problem.
BTW, this Mohawk has a 22' Shilen barrel, aluminum bottom metal and a Timney trigger. It's glassed and free floated, shoots sub-MOA with loads it likes, which are most of them.

Sweet rifle!
Thanks,
That 8 twist is the cat's meow with heavies.
I had picked up some Midway seconds, labeled as 80 gr. but actually are 75 gr. Hornady TAP/SBR surplus bullets. These are not catalog items. I got a couple of extra boxes from a Fire contributor, so probably have enough.
Have not killed any critters with those, but at .22-250 speeds, they should expand really well, (maybe too well?)....??
Anyway, they are accurate. I also have a bunch of 75 gr. ELDM seconds (I think that's what they are). They group well, too.
