    Rifle Scopes Daughter Cait needs scope advice.

    I have the same scope with the lrmoa reticle. The only real benefit I've seen so far is that the hashes are useful for sighting corrections during load development (I usually just use a plain 1 inch dot for testing groups). If I had the dot or the fine crosshair I don't think it would hurt me...

    Range Report Head & tail wind question.

    I believe the greater concern about head and tail winds is that they tend to fishtail, not effects on elevation. Slight variations in a head or tail wind make a significant difference. Slight variations in the direction of a side wind are less impactful. I ran some numbers the other day on a...

    Blind eye at work

    I'd let their lawyer tell my lawyer I can't have them. Furthermore, if you're intent on preserving evidence, make sure you keep the email headers too -- that is, more than what Outlook shows you. You want what you have to be corroborated by subpoena results or subsequent investigations. Sent...

    Good read on why we should "jam" VLD type bullets

    Ah, this is great. You guys know so much more about stuff than I do, but this I do know. The site checks the referrer header, and sees that you clicked the link on some other site. To prevent hot-linking, they give you the error. From the error screen, click in the URL bar and press ENTER...

    Rifle Scopes Sightron Siii 10-50 or Nightforce BR 8-32

    Re: Sightron Siii 10-50 or Nightforce BR 8-32 I recently bought the SIII 10-50x60 with the illuminated LRIRMOA reticle. I talked with a bunch of guys at the range, and looked through some of the Nightforces. I really wanted the side-focus, though, and the NXS models get too expensive for...

    Any favorite recipes for the 6.8spc?

    Re: Any favorite recipes for the 6.8spc? I'm using Hornady's 110gr HPBT with 29.6gr of H335. It gets me about 2620fps, with no pressure signs at all. That puts it about at the max for a 110 using Hodgdon's data. I know there are some on the 68forums using more than that, but I'm happy with...

    Rifle Scopes fine cross hair 1/2 mil reticles in ~6-24 power?

    Re: fine cross hair 1/2 mil reticles in ~6-24 power? Here's the image of the reticle. Sorry it's framed weirdly -- it's my cell phone, and it was difficult to get the phone to focus on the reticle. To the eye, the target looks fine, so don't use this image as an estimate of the resolution...

    Rifle Scopes fine cross hair 1/2 mil reticles in ~6-24 power?

    Re: fine cross hair 1/2 mil reticles in ~6-24 power? I'm not home right now, but I do have the Varmint sf. Mine's the 12x, though. The reticle lines are not very fine -- I would say that they are slightly heavier than my Nikon Prostaff BDC and my Nikon M223-BDC600. Something like the...
