    Range Report Trying to build a table from my data but nothing lines up

    What MitchK said is stuck in my head. Maybe the distances are just a little off. Most everything out to 800 is about 25 yards off. Maybe a combination of a couple yards, just a few, and a bad baro setting. I dunno. The only one I can check right now is the 400 yard distance. I can easily...

    Range Report Trying to build a table from my data but nothing lines up

    Did it. Didn't make a big difference. Dropped the baro to 20" absolute and the shorter range number started getting closer but the 1000 yard number was now off by a mil. Funny, his data had me .4 mils at 200 yards to confirm the zero. I saw his iPhone screen with my own eyes. I can't get...

    Range Report Trying to build a table from my data but nothing lines up

    Interesting. While I didn't catch on at the time, the instructor (Dan Newberry @ Bangsteel) had JBM website up on his iPhone and he was getting way closer data to what I was actually shooting than I was as shown above. So it must be an environmental this. Question now is....how to fix...

    Range Report Trying to build a table from my data but nothing lines up

    Oh, just to add. We did a trajectory ranging exercise where I shot at an unknown (to me) distance target, walked my fire to the target, made my hit, and then using that hold data figured it's range. So my confidence is high for known ranges and mil hold data. Could be a variety of things...

    Range Report Trying to build a table from my data but nothing lines up

    No scope adjustments, all holds. Ranges all known and verified with a LRF. The last Ballisitc for iPad I ran with good environmental data and it has me right on at 1100 and 1000 with increasing errors as we go shorter. Tried truing it but throws everything off. I figured the table would...

    Range Report Trying to build a table from my data but nothing lines up

    Hey gang. When I shot for the first time last week I had no dope on the gun. A .308 with 175gr SMK gives us a place to start so we knew about where it should hit. Made my hits and recorded the data. After I got home I tried using this data to build a table but tweeking things like MV or...

    Range Report First long range shooting ever, last Tuesday.

    Picked up a .308 from a friend a couple months ago. Long range is never something I've done but I'm familiar enough the the technical part that when I got the deal on the rifle I hit the ground running. It's a Rem 700sa, blueprinted with a Lilja M40 barrel (actual production overrun) on an HS...

    Hello from East Tennessee.

    Live out in a Ten Mile. Went to Bangsteel this week and shot with Dan. First time ever shooting long range. Made hits out to 1100 yards with a new (to me) rifle, new scope and a load I just built up. Very cool!

    SWAROVSKI Laser Guide

    Guess I got lucky. Found one on eBay half priced. Used but in good shape. Works perfect, I was ranging at 1k yards in full sunlight. The other guy had a Leica, wouldn't work, too bright out. No problem with the Swarovski. These rock! Maybe I should get another....

    Hello from East Tennessee.

    Howdy gang. New to long range, old to shooting and reloading. These forums seem pretty helpful so I decided to join. Seeya!
