Just picked this up the other day. Has the 24 inch fluted heavy barrel which is (no surprise) pretty damn heavy. Rifle came with the factory installed rail which is stamped "20 MOA". I know that this particular rail is intended more for longer ranges (600+ yards?) but I probably won't be close to that. I can see my longest shot at maybe 250-300 yards. Is the 20 MOA rail suitable for those distances or should it be replaced?

I would keep the 20 MOA rail. Just make sure your scope has enough internal adjustment to zero at 100.
Yes keep it, and 20 MOA down is easily handled by most scopes you’d consider in mid price ranges.Quote:

My $350 Falcon M18+ has 76 MOA total (38 up/down).

I have one of those with a 20" barrel. It's generally really good, and for the price, it's terrific.
Niggles:
1. The mag sucks.
2. I don't care, but guys on SavageShooters say the 20moa rail isn't really 20moa.
