Talleys require me to lift my head slightly when shouldering the rifle for proper view through the scope.

Leupold DD align my eye much more readily

You are too nice. I would have said they look like schidt and I hate messing with vertical split rings. ha ha.. I love DD's as well, but your rifle is a notch above a regular ol pre 64. You will probably think about using a set of S&K's or Conetrols, just to spruce it up a little more than the plain ol DD's..

More than they need to be. Plus they stick up above the scope and snag on chidt. Most things are more aesthetically pleasing to my eye.

Now if we could just get Leupold to stop stamping their rings with that dreadful L

Wow, very nice! Congratulations. Be sure to let us know what load you settle on.

Mike, load development will begin with 140, 150 and 160 Partitions over H4350.

The rifle will decide.
