First time to try posting a pic here.  Please bear with me.  If it works, it should show my Savage BVSS in 308, SS10x42, Farrell std base, Warne QD rings, and Versapod.  Thanks for everyone's help.

Thanks for the kind words and warm welcome guys. 

 

If DEADBEAT's around, you can see from the pics that I had plenty of room with the medium height Warne Maxima rings, and could have gone with the low version.

 

BTW, although I don't have many rounds through it yet, I've tried the Hornady A-max, Federal GMM, and Black Hills SMK, and it seems to like the Black Hills 168gr the best.

I'll see what I can do as far as the targets.  I think it's main limitations are my shaky hands and poor eyesight.  Given those limitations, even with me pulling the trigger, it easily puts 3 rounds under an inch.  Looking forward to getting more practice, and picking up some tips here in the forums.

 

I like the Accu-Trigger, but I haven't changed it from whatever the factory setting was.  It's still got a lighter pull than anything else I've shot.

 

The rifle itself is a pretty heavy setup.  As pictured, it weighs in right at 13.8 lbs.
