Re: Vortex 6-24X50 PST Initial Impressions I too have one of these on order. Waiting patiently for it. Great review. Also where did you get those targets from. .1mil 100 yard targets. Downloaded?? Thanks

Re: Ballistics FTE or iSnipe?? Get Bullet Flight (Knight Armament Corporation). I have all 3, Bullet Flight, Ballistic FTE, and Isnipe. Bullet Flight really easy to store and make changes. Ballistic FTE nice to store Range data with target hits and velocities for future reference of zeros...

Re: Shooter+iPhone 4G+Verizon?? I have Bullet Flight (Knight Armament Corporation) and Ballistic FTE and Isnipe. I use Bullet flight the most. Really easy to store and change parameters. I use Ballistic Flight to store range data with target hits and velocities on a range zeroing session...

Re: My "Budget" .223 build finally done Nice build. Love to hear the long range shooting reports. Only out to 985 yards with my 223 so far. I have a Vortex PST on order 6-24 FFP Mil Mil. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Had a friend up to the range this weekend. His rifle was in the shop...

Re: scope on 20 moa base, I have 42 moa up and 26 down Did you ever have it mounted and zeroed at 100 yards prior to getting the slope rail. My Elite 6500 was right in the middle of 90 moa up at 45 with 100 yard zero no rail. With the rail I'm 24 moa up for 100 yard zero now and I have the...

Re: Savage 12 LEFT hand Picatinny Rails... Exact same savage rifle. 12 VLP DBM LH (mine .223) EGW standard 20 moa rail works great. They offered to do the same, machine it for a little extra, but they though it would be ok. I declined because I didn't want to wait. No need it works...

Re: Lefty needing a one piece base. Also got one from EGW for a Savage 12 VLP DBM LH I am a lefty and the Standard 20moa rail worked great. They did contact me saying the standard one should work fine but they could do a little machining on the left side. Extra fee and time so I tool it as...

Re: Ballistic FTE program help I have both this program and KAC Bullet flight. The bullet flight has Litz's G7 Data built into it. I agree I don't think the Ballistic program re G7 data works. I can't find any G7 data and when I change the native drag to G7 from the loaded G1 data then...

Re: Practical Tactical Practice - Avoiding Group Shots Just Getting into the Dot Drills. This is a new load of mine that fairly accurate. Took 3 shots to confirm zero from previous scope setting with other loads. 100 Yards, 223 Rem, Varget 26.1 gr, Sierra 69gr HPBT. COAL 2.360" (.018" off...

Re: What distance is your zero? My range is 100 yards so gather zero data there. Then dope as required. Using Litz's G7 data .223 rem with both Hornady 68gr and Sierra 69gr HPBT was within 1 click (.285moa on my gun) at 570 yards (1.7" low) (both 25.0gr varget and within 1 click zeros) Was a...

Re: Loads for .223- 5.56 Haven't had a chance to tune the load yet but 25.0 gr Varget with the COAL set to 2.390" (Contact with my lands on these is 2.400" so 0.010" off lands) No compression problems. Fits fine in my new Savage VLP DBM mags and feeds great. At least .5moa round as is...

Re: Hottest load for .223? WOW!!! Clark, just did a quick calc on those H335 loads. Quickload has the 25.3gr at 55887psi 3350fps out of a 26" barrel. The other 2 are scary. 29.0 gr 94500psi 3800 fps, 31.0gr 128237psi 4036fps. I know its just a calculator and some assumptions were made on...
