    Good information, it is amazing to me the lengths that some will spout about not cleaning their rifle.

    Jim, the Talley ring part number you showed doesn’t match up with a Zeiss Conquest tube size. The part number you showed is for a 1” tube, the Conquest 50mm objective lens all have a 30mm tube.

    My Conquest is several years old and has a 1" tube. However you are correct the newer ones are 30mm tubes. Thank you for sharing.

    I question your weight of the rifle... Weatherby says the naked rifle weighs 7.5 lbs, but you said 7.1 lbs with scope?

    Kevin, I will re-weight it this afternoon and make corrections if needed. It's certainly possible I miss spoke or weighted it incorrectly. Thank you for commenting.

    Kevin, I did recheck the total weight this afternoon and is 8lb11oz with 4 rounds in the magazine. Thank you for your challenge. I will always listen to comments and if I'm wrong I'm wrong. I learned a log time ago I will make mistakes along the way.

    How does it shoot? I have the same gun same caliber. I am shooting. 1.90" at 100 yards and 2.5-3" at 200 yards with 162 grain hornady hunter. I cleaned it and broke it in. I am going to start reloading with nosler brass. I could not find anything else. Are you going to use large magnum primers or just large? I have the same problem with the magazine. If i push up just a little it feeds the second and third rounds.

    I got it shooting really good after brake in. In one of my review videos I believe I discussed how I fixed the feeding issues by changing/removing some of the mag well shims they use. I also had to play with the action screws torque values. I bought some Peterson brass and fire formed some Remington 280 brass. Shooting 160gr Nosler Accubond and Partitions on top of 55gr IMR 4350 with CCI 200 large rifle (Non Mag) and about 30 thousands off the lands I'm inside a inch at 100 yrds and 1.5" at 200 yrds. The Accubond will shoot under 1/2" at 100 yrds a bit more accurate than the Partitions. Work up to the powder charge. I wasn't trying to break FPS records just a good hunting load. Let me know how it goes and good luck, it will shoot, but is kind of picky.
