It wont be easy with a barrel in the 7.5-8.5 range due to movement of the weapon, but on a good solid front rest and rear bag it should be easy enough out to 400-450. Keep us posted
Yep, "uncharted territory" confirms what I thought from the lack of information coming up in searches. Once I do it I will definitely post results together with crow eating / brags as appropriate. Though it will be some time before I'm in a position to start this build.
Which leads me to my next question: If it wasn't already obvious I am new to long range shooting. I keep hearing wildly differing advice for DMR scope magnification at these ranges: some say that a 6 or 8x works, some that you need 15-20x. I lean heavily towards 1-8 LPVO if possible, based on the jack of all trades nature of this build idea.
