    Well my RPR 308 come out of the closet recently as a transcalibur, it identified as a 6.5 Creedmoor. So I paid for its caliber reassignment surgery to avoid any Libtards accusing me of being a caliber raciest. Intelligence is limited but stupidity knows no bounds which explains Obama and his ilk.
    Upgrades:

    LRI 26” 1 in 8 twist Match Grade Drop in Replacement Barrel for Ruger RPR-6.5mm Creedmoor -140GRAIN A-MAX/143GRAIN ELD-X
    LRI Cathedral Port Muzzle Brake for ARC Mausingfield and Ruger RPR
    LRI Direct Replacement Billet AL Ruger RPR Bolt Shroud
    Harris Engineering Hinged Base 9 - 13-Inch BiPod
    Accu-Shot PRM (Precision Rail Monopod) Standard (BT12) with Quick Knob Option
    Vortex Razor G2 HD 4.5x27 56mm in MOA
    Magpul Knock off rail grip from ebay. (Got wrist issue that makes this a must have for me)

    Performance
    Holes touching 5 shot at 100 yards and another 5 shot ½” MOA at 100 yards.
    Tried to shoot it out to 300 yards but the heat waves were just too much, couldn’t see squat to adjust for shot.
    Need to find someone with a range that has foliage to reduce the heat waves.
    Ammunition used is the Hornady 6.5 Creedmoor 140 gr ELD Match.
    Very very pleased with its performance so far.
    I was beside myself with the fact it was way longer than any bag or case I owned, then I remembered after 3 beers that the stock folds, derp…
    Just got a membership at the ERGC so you will be seeing me out there more often.

    Try dropping the magnification down to 12X-15X I cant tell you the last time that I didn't have enough magnification, but I have had several experiences with too much
