    Fieldcraft Book recommendations

    Re: Book recommendations COURAGEWOLF-Thanks I'll check it out. kraigWY-I can find dozens of books without buying a copy of Fur Fish & Game magazine. What I'm attempting to do is not waste my time and money on books that are poorly written with scant or just plain bad information. Do you have...

    Fieldcraft Compass suggestions

    Who makes a good quality compass these days? Are there any that aren't made in china? I'm looking for something like a Suunto MC2, but reviews of the newer Suuntos are not very flattering. Thanks, Jacob

    Rifle Scopes reticle breakdown

    Re: reticle breakdown ipaintguns-The info posted was for 10x. MeridianMW-I was hoping for the same, but did not have enough magnification to get to 1 mil between dots. "You could also add a little strip of white tape for indexing." I'm not following you on this one. Could you please...

    Rifle Scopes reticle breakdown

    Re: reticle breakdown fng- No, that would be 1.05 mils. That's not much but it starts to add up. Check out the new pic and see where you would need to hold for 5 mils. You cannot just count the mildots\hashmarks since the values are not the same. Instead you need to add up each of the...

    Rifle Scopes reticle breakdown

    Re: reticle breakdown Here is what I found out at the range today. Not real pleased with the reticle. As you can see it is not the best set up for ranging. Having the Mildot =.2mils and the Dotbar =.1mils slow the ranging process down.

    Rifle Scopes reticle breakdown

    Re: reticle breakdown Thanks ipaintguns, but I have seen that and I'm not convinced it is accurate. According to the directions the Mildot is .2 mils and from the top of the Mildot to the top of the Dotbar is 1 mil. I have a TRS-1 and the Mildot is twice the size of the Dotbar which means the...

    Rifle Scopes reticle breakdown

    I'm looking for help in understanding the reticle in a Millet TRS-1 scope. I understand what is 1 mil on the reticle. What I'm looking for is what is the dimension of the dot, the line/hash mark and the distance between the two. This is an example of what I'm looking for...

    Marlin 925 Range Report

    Re: Marlin 925 Range Report My son has 925c and at 120yds he was hitting a 3 inch steel 9 out of 10 times. Pushed it back to 200yds and was hitting the 4 inch plate 7 out of 10 times. I believe it was Remington bulk ammo, 64 deg with light wind at our back. Fantastic riffle. As a side note...
