    Remington model 700 SS 5r milspec

    I'm just getting into the long range game, I have a 24" .308 700 5-R. Specs say its a 11.25 twist. Could someone help me out on the best sized round that I should be sending down the tube for the 100-500yd range? If my other research is correct, this is built around the 175gr SMK. Is this...

    hello from minnesota

    That doesn't look like it's in Minnesota. If it is, where is it and how can I sign up?

    Any range recommendations in the North West Minneapolis area? I'm located in Rogers, looking to get into long range shooting. I've only ever shot at 100 yards, but have a setup that can maybe get me out to 500.

    Hello. I see I'm not the only new person to join from Minnesota. Any luck finding a decent range that will let you shoot past 200 Yards?

    Rifle Scopes 20 MOA Base 100yd -> 500yd help

    The reason this isn't making sense to me is that I always thought 1 MOA is 1" at 100 yards. So in theory. If i sight a scope in on a flat base at 100 yards. Now put that scope on the same gun with a 20 MOA base, i'll be shooting 20" too high at the same 100 yards. Move this out to 200...

    Rifle Scopes 20 MOA Base 100yd -> 500yd help

    Could someone perhaps explain this in more detail? I'm pretty confused on how the 20 MOA base has no impact on the after zero adjustment (sight in at 100, but shooting at 200 / 300 / 400) Like I said, I'm new here, but can't seem to figure out the answers on my own and need some help...

    Rifle Scopes 20 MOA Base 100yd -> 500yd help

    Thanks for the reply and feedback, but this was only a small part of the question. If I do sight in at 100 yards, then at 500 yards, I'm looking at a 63" drop. This would convert to about 12 MOA adjustment that would be needed to hit the target, does the 20 MOA base impact this adjustment at...
