as much as I would like to put a aimpoin on this bad boy I don't think I'm stickin anything with batteries on it. I may replace the front sling attachment with a rail so I can put a flash light on there if I should decide to someday. after that I think a decent scout scope will be good. if ammo was cheaper and a 100 yard range was close by I would probably just go with iron sites for a long time.

I think I picked out 4 types of ammo to try. black hills, federal, Corbon, and hornady. I may also pick up some bulk ammo. I keep seeing german and south African pop up so I may get both just to see how thy stack up.

man this is turning into a really nice chunk of change!

Watch out for the Cupro-Nickel ammunition, and DON'T shoot it through that rifle! The jacketing on the projectiles comes apart easily and fouls the bore REALLY BADLY, and it takes a lot of work with a good bore brush and powerful solvent to get that crap out of the rifling. It's dirt cheap, but I wouldn't shoot it in anything other than a throwaway .308. It's just not worth the trouble in such a nice rifle, IMHO.
