    Rifle Scopes Need some help fellas

    Re: Need some help fellas A canted base is not in use, as though only having 47 MOA of elevation I have highly recommended he get one. Once zeros in at 100yds, the scope was at three full revolutions, 12 MOA per revolution, so that put the scope at 36 MOA of the elevation, leaving only 11 MOA...

    Rifle Scopes Need some help fellas

    Re: Need some help fellas Mr Brooks, the scope is mounted on high rings, I think I could go down to mediums and have a touch a space. I wouldn't think it's high enough though to make that kind of difference. Armchair, this is indeed the first scope on this rifle. I have the one- piece base...

    Rifle Scopes Need some help fellas

    A good frien of mine bought one of the new Trijicon Accupoint 5x20x50 rifle scopes this week. Have to admit, pretty impressed with the overall quality of the scope. I got it all mounted for him and we took it out today to sight it in and I ran into something I've never encountered before. The...

    Re: Hodgons 4831sc "Temp Sensative" Hey Turbo, thanks for the insight. I do have some H4350, and was planning on trying it with the 123's. I noticed the BC difference between the 120's & the 123's, it's really not even close in comparison. The 120's have a BC of .421, while the 123's are...

    Hodgons 4831sc "Temp Sensative"

    Re: Hodgons 4831sc "Temp Sensative" Hey guys, went back out this evening when the sun was going down, an the Chrony was right back to reading properly. The Chronograph is the Chrony Master F1. So the direct sunlight must really play havoc on the readings. In regards to the powder...

    Re: Hodgons 4831sc "Temp Sensative" Yes, the ammo was sitting directly out in the sun. I suppose I should have covered it.

    Hodgons 4831sc "Temp Sensative"

    I have been working on a load for my .260 and finally went out today and ran it through the Chrony. So, I've pretty much found my load that is shooting just a touch under 1/2 MOA @ 100yds. First 5 shots through the Chrony and the average was 2720fps, shooting 120gr Sierra Matchkings, lit up with...
