Great cartridge and I really like the how clear and crisp the Monarch series is.

It looks like it's the BDC reticle, it doesn't have the taller style target knobs like the ones I have owned before.

It's a BDC reticle, but actually came with turrets and taller caps.

Looks nice!

You'll love the RUM, I have a BDC on mine also, but am seriously considering going to the CDS setup with it.

That looks good guys. What weight/contour barrel is on that setup?

Huntboy · « **Reply #16 on:** March 16, 2012, 01:08:27 PM »

gadwall, thanks. Weight is 8.8 lbs, barrel is 26" medium/heavy contour and fluted.

gadwall · « **Reply #17 on:** March 18, 2012, 09:01:05 AM »

Let's see a long range target one of these days. What powder/bullet combo do you like in the RUM? I don't have one but I will be loading for a buddy sometime soon. Thinking about the 180 accubond and R-25 or Retumbo.
