Geometry question.... Angular movement

I'm old and my geometry is long gone. Weird question I cannot answer.
For sake of argument lets assume a rifle will put every round though the same hole......
What amount of movement at the bench would cause 1/4" impact movement at 100 yards? 1/16", 1/8"??
I've long forgotten how to calculate this. Maybe some of you big brain, smarter guys can tell me. Thanks.

Pistol Reloading Issue I cant figure out

So I had a bunch of 9mm loaded not too long ago. Just range ammo using some 115gr XTP that I got free from Hornaday on their free bullet promo.
Loaded up a bunch and never did anything any different than I ever have.
Had bought a new carry gun in 9mm so wanted to get to the range and shoot it.
Get there and the first mag I made about 7 rounds and the gun locks up, and I mean locks up solid.
Finally got it free and notice the round in the chamber the bullet had pushed back in the case...Kind of weird, never had it happen before.
So loaded up and shot again. Made it about 5 or so rounds and it did the same thing.
Got my other 9mm out and it happened again.
So stopped shooting and went home.
Got to looking and there were a bunch of rounds in the 100 count box that would just push back in the case.
So checked all I had done and out of about 500 rounds, about half would push back.
So checked my dies and reset them and loaded a few dummy rounds and did a push test and again the bullet would push back into the case.
Had the taper set just like the instructions said. Nothing worked right.
Probably reset the dies 5-6 different times, took them apart and cleaned them. Nothing worked.
I cant figure it out at all. I don't know if its a die issue or what.
I had some loaded from a few years ago still that were done with a RCBS die and they are all fine.

The only difference in the two is the ones I had issues with were the Hornady bullet and loaded with Hornady dies. And the others were just round nose bullets loaded with RCBS dies.


Contacted Hornady and they said I could send the dies, bullets, brass in and they would check them. But I don't understand what might be the issue.

Not new to reloading pistols as I load for 45acp, 40S&W and 357 also and have zero problems with them.

Anyone by chance have any ideas?

He didn’t have any face tattoos and wasn’t part of a protected class so they went full retard on him . Good tho g he didn’t have a dog or a woman with him .

Badlands "Shell Shock" 5.56 - snake oil?

Hey guys, can anyone here explain the difference between the rounds in the video/links below, and normal steel case ammo? Is Badlands just loading extra-hot (maybe dangerously hot) steel-case 5.56 and trying to hype it for higher profit margins? I tried to link the Youtube video to where the host notes that the case is "nickel alloy stainless case," but how metallurgically different is that from...say...Tula or Brown Bear cases, or the steel-case 77gr OTM that AAC was selling a few months ago on the Palmetto State Armory website?

I'm also suspicious of his FGMM 77gr velocity numbers from the 10.3 barrel. He shoots a 5-round group, but shots 2, 3, and 4 are cut from the video, and the last shot is suspiciously higher than the average, while the first shot is suspiciously low. It seems like a fairly extreme spread for that ammunition.

Oh, also: Badlands wants $1.45/round for these "Shell Shock" this 77gr OTM rounds (https://badlandsmunitionsco.com/product/556-nas3-77gr-sierra-match-king/), so the statement at 0:00:15 that it is "the same price as your brass 5.56" is an outright lie. Just one more red flag to call out.

There are probably more nits to pick too, but those are the ones that jumped out at me first. Does this activate anyone else's Spidey senses? Do we have any history/reason to trust that this guy is an honest broker of information? Am I missing a major reason to buy the hype here?

Firearms 2 Browning O/U shotguns

525 Sporting
This is one of the best feeling guns I've had my hands on. It's right handed with a palm swell. It just don't fit me like I want it to. I've shot it a few rounds of sporting clays and have really enjoyed shooting it. It's a super nice gun with some handling marks as just about any wood gun you use will have.
32" Rhino Ported barrels
Adjustable comb with the spacers and tools
Adjustable trigger
Has a kickeez recoil pad that could probably stand to be replaced, it's getting a little soft.
Gun will come with 7 muller chokes. That's about $800 in chokes alone…
2-U0
2-U1
2-U2
1-U3
Asking $2250 shipped for it

Ultra sport plus
This gun is also super nice. I've shot it a few rounds of skeet and sporting and I have the same problem with it. It just don't fit like I want it to. This gun shoots like a dream with little recoil even with the 1 1/8oz 1250s. I know, not usually what you get with a browning lol
It's right handed with no palm swell. It also has a few bumps but nothing major at all.
32" Rhino Ported barrels
Adjustable comb
Adjustable trigger
Decelerator pad on it
This gun comes with 6 factory gold ring chokes.
1-skt
1-ic
2-IM
2-F
Asking $1850 ahipped for it

I personally think the 525 is the best sporting model browning ever produced. Me being a 15 7/8" LOP, neither of these guns will satisfy that without putting a 1" plastic spacer with a 1" pad in the back of it and I just don't want to do that. I'm selling both to fund another shotgun I found that "fits" me.

I've had problems uploading pics for some reason. If there's something else you want to see I'd be happy to send whatever pics you need.
Thanks

What level of Binos do you need for PRS 22.

Let me start off by saying, I do not believe spotters should be using Binos in PRS22 for 300 yard targets.. I have seen to many missed calls. I speak up so they get the points but it happens more than it should. i guess a case should be made that we dont shoot over 250. I dont mind the long shots as long as we have what it takes to make the right calls for shooters.

That all being said, I do use a spotter. I would though like to step up my Bino's. Mainly for trying to read wind a little better. I fail at the wind. I look for mirage, look at the grass, tree limbs, put all that is some mental formula that I think i have, start there for a wind call and work from there. I do wonder if I stepped up Bino's so I can see a bigger picture, better glass to see things I cant see now (cheap Vortexs that seem good for the money) would it be worth the upgrade? and how far do i need to upgrade? All the way to the Pures? Or will the Zeiss Conquest be far enough? I don't mind by once cry once, but I would prefer to hit the area where I bump diminishing returns on the money. Maybe the Bushnell Match PRO's are enough..

I hunt in the East so I cant make the case for the Pures for Hunting, It really would just be for PRS22..some day maybe for Centerfire..

I wanted to ask for some Opinions before I drop the NL Pure Nuke on my fun money bank account.
