    long range .22 lr

    at 25 yards his bullet is still rising with respct to his line of sight. so at 30 yards it's a little high and it comes back down to his line of sight by 50 yards and then continues to fall from there

    long range .22 lr

    that's honestly a more correct way to do it by many people's standards. dialing it in can be a lot more precise, but it's slower and sometimes you cant' dial it far enough. If that's working for you there's nothing wrong with it, but it never hurts to learn about other ways

    milliradian prefix milli meaning one one thousandth and radian. a unit of measurement similar to a degree. (2pi radians in a circle) hence one one thousandth of a radian. not at all necessary to know for shooting reasons, but in case you're curious like i tend to be :)

    no need to be embarassed, now you know. many scopes have mil dots meaning every dot is spaced 3.6 moa at a given magnification. that is if you have a second focal plane mil dot scope. a first (or front) focal plane scope will be constant trhroughout the magnification range. we use mil dot scopes...

    coWSMasher said he was running somewhere around 24 mil. he has a 100 yard zero and he was running velocitors. I have a 50 yard zero and was running federal bulk.

    thank you! that matches pretty close to what i remember out that far. (I think i was just a hair less) but i don't recall how much at 485. I think i was about 20 mils in my scope and then i was aiming at points far above the targer. (probly another 20 mil?) real rough guess. i just kinda tried...

    I knew this question was going to come up. i really wish i could remember. Hopefully coWSMasher can be of more help.

    Non riffle guy looking for a riffle

    The only calibers that might meet your criteria are a .270 and .30-06. any other caliber won't be very versatile imo.

    If you're looking to run factory ammo you're not going to find much under a dollar a round.

    1.5 mile club

    I'd have to go out of state to do that! only place i can think of you can see that far around here is across a lake or down a highway. I'm guessing shooting down either is frowned upon

    long range .22 lr

    I'd say that sounds more reasonable. you will be subsonic so your groups will start to fall apart a little bit, but they'll still hold decent. The drop is easily compensated for
