    Range Report 6.5 CM vs 6CM Ballistics

    Thanks for the reply's guys. I have just finished a PRL 3 day comp here in the UK. The 6x47 was great up to 950 metres but out to 1200 metres was unable to really see splash, or see hits on steels. The 6.5 creeds were easier to see. We dont have flashers over here on targets. May have to use the...

    Range Report 6.5 CM vs 6CM Ballistics

    I was thinking of building another 6mm, I currently have a 6x47. I had too much spare time on my hands and started going through the Hide forum and thinking should I build a 6.5CM instead? Are there any real ballistic advantages to a 6.5CM over a 6CM? It will be used mainly for PRS type comps...

    I have read of a few companies making high end scopes with built in LRF's, that can tell you the drops. I believe one is an American company? Anybody have any names? Thanks

    Sig BDX products update?

    Fair point Doc, just wondered if a full version of AB would appear in a set of Binos instead of the AB lite version in the 3000 BDX?

    Sig BDX products update?

    Hi Guys Does anybody know if Sig is going to expand the BDX range? I was going to buy some Sig kilo 3000 BDX Binos, but might hang on if a better model is coming out? If so, anybody has an idea what it might be?

    Bighorn Long Action 6.5x47 Magazines

    Hi I have a Bighorn TL3 Long Action in an XLR Evolution chassis. I want to shoot 6.5x47L in it with 10 round mags. I have a 10 round 300 win mag magazine, but I cant get the rounds to feed reliably. They nose dive into the mag. Has anybody got a similar round to feed, using a 10 round magazine...

    Scope Zero Offset

    Hi Guys Finally got it working! Once I ignored the instructions as I read them and looked at the target from the bullets point of view and inputted the corrections that way it worked on the Sig and Garmin, have not tried ColdBore yet. As the .284 was Low and Left in put in Minus on the...

    Scope Zero Offset

    Hi Subwrx300 You were right a typo, should have been -22 cm & -10 cm. Can anyone tell me if when I have the .284 barrel on and I want to shoot a target at 100m which is my Zero, will the app tell me what my starting turret offset is? I would have thought it would say I have to have 2.2 & 1 mil...

    Scope Zero Offset

    I have now spend over 4 days trying to get this to work, I think for my sanity it might be easier...but costlier to just have separate rifles! If only I could understand what I have to put in. I have tried +202 cm, -202 cm nothing changes in the predictions in any of the apps. I would have...

    Scope Zero Offset

    Hi I use a Garmin 701, which you use the AB profile loader. I also have a Sig 2400 LRF which uses an AB engine from a app on a phone to sync to the LRF. I also use Coldbore on a Windows phone, although this is new to me I zero all my rifles and calibres at 100 metres. Mark

    Scope Zero Offset

    Hi Is it correct that If I put in the offsets correctly I would expect to see on my app to say at 100m with the .284 barrel on it would say that up 2.2 mil Right 1 mil foe a zero?

    Scope Zero Offset

    Hi TheOE800 Yes thanks, thats what I thought I had to do but was confused with the useless 3 different manuals I have for the different software. I take it you think as if you are the Bullet and if you are low or left you would put in a minus and High or right a positive? Mark

    Scope Zero Offset

    Hi Guys I have a Switch barrel rifle, 6x47 & .284 Win. I have zeroed the scope with the 6x47. The .284 barrel when fitted has 2.2 mil up elevation and 1 mil right to get the rifle to Zero. I have a Sig 2400, a Garmin 701 and Coldbore, they all I believe can put in an offset to allow for the...

    Setting Up Coldbore 1.0

    It seems Microsoft was changed something so I (we) can't sync desktop and phone at the moment. Can somebody talk me through how to set up a track (firearm profile) so I can use the app for a shooting solution. I have all the necessary data, bullet, speed etc. Thanks

    Setting Up Coldbore 1.0

    I have just purchased Coldbore, both Desktop & Mobile, both are registered. I have spent an hour trying to figure out how to setup a gun profile in the mobile app. The manual tells you what the program can do but not how to setup a rifle profile. I have used many solvers in the the last 10...

    Changing Distance Output of Garmin 701

    Hi Guys I have finally found the setting, not where I thought it would be. Apart form private ranges all ranges in the UK are in Yards. I shoot Sniper Comps in Europe which are in metres but we laser everything, but will switch to Metres then. I use a March Mil scope but have the Garmin set to...
