When I watched the video, nice by the way, I believe you mentioned that you were shooting the Parker Match Hunter bullets? Just a suggestion...……. I personally know a guy that has been testing for Bob, both the Match Hunter and the Black Max. The Black Max for hunting from what I understand would be the bullet to use with the lower velocities that BH produces. It will not just pencil through an animal. The latest results from testing and many rounds of both the MH and the BM indicate their
accuracy is identical, so one is not loosing one thing for another. Both bullets flights and accuracy are identical at ELR also 1,000yds+.
You'll find a difference of opinion depending on who you talk to about wads. Some prefer wool, while many others prefer veggie. I personally use a veggie in my new custom.
Which height did you purchase with the Mark4 rings, .840" or the 1"???
I have the 1" on my custom, using a 50mm Nightforce. I have .300" clearance using a 15moa mount.
My Mark 4 Mediums Worked out perfect, I’ve got a Country mile of clearance here

This is exactly what i was hoping for.
I will get better pictures soon, But you can see my clearance here. I will end up Needing Med/Highs for a 40 MOA Base, And not sure that Leupold even Offers a Med/High in these 30MM Steel Mark 4s? If not, i will get a set of Highs. It might not look it here, but even the Supplied Scope covers fit over this objective end, Just clears without touching, Again, EXACTLY what i wanted/Hoped for when i went with the Mediums, it’s a DARN good thing they didn’t have Lows or I would have went with them, and obviously would of been sending them Back. Now to go Burn some powder!
Rifle is Kanted to the Right in this Cheap Little Cleaning Cradle due to the Thumbhole Stock, But you get the Picture
