    Rifle Scopes Starting think you guys are full of shit

    Reticle design is a major factor and this also plays into the decision of looking at higher end optics too get your favorite. On a budget we see a lot of Burris XTR II optics with the SCR reticle in our classes, about the best choice on a 1k optic IMHO. Two things sell optics turret...

    Rifle Scopes The more I think about it

    Mil or MOA are angular measurements with no linear dimension association. Both work with imperial or metric units once we input size and/or distance if needed. Isn't the OP "IOR scopes rock" Phil from a few months ago?

    Training Courses Precision Rifle 101/102 Naples NY Sept 12-14 my 2 cents..........

    Herd Thinner thanks for the kind words. We at Long Gun Training had fun this year and want to thank everyone who attended our civilian courses. We have shut down civilian training until spring 2015, look for our schedule to come out in January 2015 after SHOT show. We are continuing our LE...

    Advanced Marksmanship How do you calculate wind correction without a ballistic calculator?

    Downzero Well test is yourself and compare the BC wind method to JBM or any other ballistic program. Understand you need to use the G1 BC number and this would be for full value wind directions. It is not perfect but will get you within 0.1 or so compared to programs. Keep data and fine tune...

    Advanced Marksmanship How do you calculate wind correction without a ballistic calculator?

    BC Based Wind Calculation Method The BC method simply states that if a 308 has the BC of .4xx so you use the first number in the BC as the wind or per 4 MPH. If you use a bullet with a different BC that first number is the BC value you use for the wind speed. So a 5.56 would use 3 MPH based...

    Rifle Scopes New Steiner T5Xi Tactical Rifle Scopes

    Let me try to understand this whole thing. Steiner announces a new properly price pointed optic for us with a tentative release date, looks like it will roll out several weeks past the date and a general melt down fecal matter sling fest begins. Steiner Optics (aka Martin) does not post for a...

    We had a great 3 days of training, the weather gave us many changes, day two we had 25 mph wind with gusts. Rob Ormond from Team Blaster rolled in as a guest instructor along with Long Gun Training staff. Look for more combined classes between us in 2015.

    Training Courses Precision Rifle 101/102 Naples NY Sept 12-14

    Having Rob assisting in this class will be a great addition for students attending this one. Naples in located in Western New York, and this venue/range is a great location. We will set multiple target packages out from one firing position.

    shooting beyond 500 yards

    Huntdog Sounds like you are basing this past 500 on one shooting session or range trip? A single data collection does not tell us much, several data sets will start giving us a picture. Always go to the range either reinforcing your data or update it. From what you post it is most likely wind...

    Rifle Scopes S&B H2CMR vs. MSR question?

    Aside from ELR where I use the P4F, I prefer the MSR. The center cross being 1 mil total and .5 mil from center to end of line works just fine, here I do not need 0.2 marks for hold offs. Yes it is a bit thicker but IMO cleaner than having marks in the center area. I am with LL take away the...

    Atlas Bi-Pod Junk???

    Shooting front support prone either Atlas or Harris work, it becomes personal preference and budget. Get out of prone and start using bipods on barricades and other field positions sometimes not even deploying bipod legs out, but using the feet and legs for push/pull support for positional...
