I had a chip on mine for 200,000 km (still have it) but recently had my injections done plus got it remapped. Had compression test done before r...

Re: Bushnell Elite 6500

I have used a Bushnell 6500 4.5-30×50. Was good to use under the spotlight and during day. Lost clarity at the high end magnification range.

Re: EDIT- Ultimate rimfire stock

I love my A3. Also used a McMillan game scout which is a A3 with slimmer fore end suited to light weight barrels. Think that would be great for what you are after.
