    Shooting a gas gun isn't like shooting a bolt action.... Explain this to me please

    True, but this is where the make up is different. Gas guns have moving parts...and lots of them. The bolt gun does not per se. In order for the gas gun to be precise shot after shot, everything needs to come to rest in the same exact spot as the prior shot. Hence, having to spend a fortune...

    Help with new 300 win mag

    Well, on my 300 wsm, I have a Ziess conquest 4.5-14. I shoot far better at 100 when I'm at 4.5X than 14. Same with my 7 mag with a leo 4.5-14. Give it a try. At 100 yards, I can easily pick out any kind of target at 4.5X. Sure, it's small but I can still see it. Shoot say, a 5 shot group...

    Rifle Scopes mil or moa

    Awesome info fellas. Thanks. I have a lot of experience with our measurements and not the metric system. I know how to use the metric system, but I never use it. It's difficult for me to project metric measurements in my minds eye. But I had thought mil and metric worked well together...

    Rifle Scopes mil or moa

    Yep, I agree you can use either with a linear distance. I'm on the same page there. However, I've heard it's easier mil and meters. Bad info? I'm still learning so be gentle. According to this post, the only real difference is a more precise unit of measure. Is that the only advantage I'm...

    Rifle Scopes mil or moa

    Correct me if I'm wrong here folks, but I thought MOA was set up for yards opposed to mil and meters. So....1 MOA at 100 yds is 1.05"...1 mil at 100 meters is 1 cm. I use MOA because I'm use to yds.

    The other thing I noticed...you shouldn't need to be at 24x when shooting at a 100. I do better the lower the power I'm on. When your done shooting, you can dial up to 24x to review your shot placement.

    I don't mind shooting off a bench. However, I almost never use a bipod for load development or precision shooting. Pick up some shooting bags instead if your using the bench. I use the bipods for prone work...

    Range Report R700 223 52gr SMK Ladder tests. Help?

    Yep, sorry. I'm the tard here. I did quite a bit of reading on ladder testing after I posted on this thread. Your theory looks sound from what I've read. Are you going to try the same ladder again to verify your results?

    Range Report R700 223 52gr SMK Ladder tests. Help?

    I'm a little confused how you did your test. Did you use only one shot for a particular load? More details please?

    Rifle Scopes Eye relief on high power rifle

    I always set my variable scopes half way through the power range when setting up. I then do a quick draw for an off-hand type of shot there to see if I have a complete picture. Adjust and repeat until you feel comfortable. I'll check on all power ranges and when I feel I'm close or there for...
