Many of us that get into precision shooting gravitate to the word “precision” and are compulsive about finding the perfect and exact ballistic solution, the perfect ammo load, or thinking we can derive perfect environmental and wind readings. As much as our typical compulsion for precise answers drives us, this sport humbles us to get comfortable accepting inherent variables and the reality of rounding.

When people discover my interest in long-range shooting, Extreme Long Range (ELR) often comes to mind. They frequently ask how far I shoot and what caliber I use. Beyond these common questions, there’s often curiosity about how to manage factors like heartbeat and the Earth’s rotation, likely influenced by portrayals in movies or books. ELR …

This article is written as background and general information for the shooter unfamiliar with using a tripod to develop language and functional understanding of the major components of a tripod. By naming, identifying visually, and briefly covering their functions, we can build a solid foundation for more detailed information.

The Gravity Ballistics concept wasn’t entirely new to me. A few years back I’d leveraged a
Sniper’s Hide worksheet as part of a “Precision Rifle Putt-Putt” concept, which was a bit of a
hybrid discpline tying in elements of both sporting clays and PRS-type competition.

The primary issue for many was target acquisition speed in both locating targets as well as re locating in riflesope. Despite self-assessments suggesting proficiency, over half of the competitors struggled significantly in this skill alone, either failing to locate targets or re-engage them after initial contact. This widespread challenge underscores the need for focused practice on quickly locating and engaging targets using both binoculars and riflescopes.
