All Of our optics are rated up to 50 BMG and will handle anything you can reasonably fire from the shoulder. However it needs to mounted properly and with precision.

I would recommend either the Ultramount, or the Unimount in 0MOA as the Ruger already has incline in the base.

What is best reticle for 1 mile shots from 6.5 creedmore.

Manufacturer Answer
A
Answered by NightForce, Manufacturer from GA, United States, on February 04, 2026

That is a haul for a 6.5 Creed. Not that it can't be done, folks do it all the time. A 6.5 goes transonic at about 1200-1300 yards meaning the drop increases exponentially at that point so you will need something that has a lot of holdover. I like the Mil-XT, or the Tremor 3, something with a grid giving you wind holds below the horizontal.

The scope can be focused down to 11 yards. Whether 7x will be too much magnification will depend on your hunting style. If the primary use for this optic is hunting with 50-100 yards, you might consider an optic with less magnification, like our ATACR 4-20x50mmf1 or our ATACR 4-16x50mm.

Jeremy, member, from MT, United States, asked on January 29, 2025

What rings are recommended for Sig Sauer Cross-Magnum Sawtooth 300 PRC?

Manufacturer Answer
A
Answered by NightForce, Manufacturer from GA, United States, on February 06, 2025

We would recommend the A226 XTRM - Ring Set - 1.375" X-High - 34mm - Ultralite™, 4 screw. As with all mounting hardware these are just our suggestions, there may be factors we don’t know about and there are many other ways to mount this optic to your rifle. We highly recommend mock mounting everything first and double check your dealers return policy in case there is something about the set up you wish to change.
