My B in .22-250 wears an old Vari X iii 3.5-10X.
Getting older, neck doesn't work as well.......even for T shirt wearing chuck blastin, I had to move the scope back and that mandated a rear offset ring.
On my RSI w old M8 4X.....just barely needed an offset ring. Ran it one yr w regs but some steep angle stuff was a chore.
Move that scope back just a bit and it was more comfy all around.
Wasnt wearing too thick of coat either.
Yes, aesthetics are important. Why else run a #1?
If I build one will use the EGW and modify it.
The EGW may have "too much" material
which is better than "too little".
Aint fat or funky build. Reg Remington stuff fits me very well. Ruger #1s are cool but they have some "quirks".
For a gun that heavy they kick harder than they should. Factory pads (red) suck.
Am debating tearing my #3 apart for a build.
