Hello friends,
Thank you all so much for your help and input and friendships as I'm venturing in to distance shooting. I finally got my rifle today - Christensen arms mpr 300 win mag. I tried to install my scope today myself (probably bad idea). It is a leupold 5-25-56 mark 5. I'm running mark 4 rings in size 35. I think I got it pretty level however I'm question how I mounted it and it's positioning and distance from the barrel. I can get the sun shade on but the lens cover will not fit. Any advice welcome. Be kind - this is my first try. Should I just take it to sportsman's and have them do it?
