It's one of two things, either his choice of scope is not adequate to use on a 338 lapua or he has an extremely severe cant.

LOL, and it was a good movie too!

I had to laugh when he started talking about wind drift and how much to allow, and hollywood got it right, well convincing anyway. But when he said that the time of flight to 1600yrds was 6-10 seconds, well that burst the bubble. lol.

But a good movie anyway.

For the record the rifle is a CheyTac M200 in 408 cal. (408CheyTac)

BUt to answer your question Ken, apart from the cant on the scope, would you be refering to the stock length?

It is a collapsable stock though, designed to reduce the rifles length, just press a button and pull it out to full length

Anyway, for those interested this is the M200 CheyTac http://www.cheytac.com/M-200.html
MBRC F-Class standard ... and proud of it!

For anyone who uses a NF NXS they would know that the Paralax knob is the one with the NF logo on it and that is on the left side of the scope.
I guess for product placement ( advertising) purposes NF may have put their logo's on all the knobs. :D
