    Lefty Friendly Scope Levels 34mm

    Don't set the scope to the gun , set the gun up to you and your position . A proper position does not always mean the top to bottom centerline of the rifle is square to the ground . Look at all the rifles in hi power for a bunch of examples with the adjustable space man stocks , ie Tubb...

    Lefty Friendly Scope Levels 34mm

    Using one from Flatline Ops , don't like rail mounted levels because they don't always jive with the reticule which is what matters .

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    Trust me I do hope I'm wrong , 1200 yard steel 40 mins from my front door would be nice . Though to say I have a pessimistic view of gunclub politics is an understatement .

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    Only way your going to change the board is replace the board . The rub there is the people with the time to be on the board are the same people that your trying to get rid of . There is a flat spot on my head from beating it on a wall from dealing with gunclub boards . Best analogy I can...

    The 1k range is their " sacred cow " out there , always has been if they think they have to ban steel to protect it there ain't a whole lot your gonna do to get them to change their minds . Its real easy to see when your out there and have to deal with the " why don't you use a sling and...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    Having dealt with target placement , on a smaller scale , at AGC Frank I can tell you first hand the heart ache they had with paper targets in only 50 , 100 , and 200 yard bays . The NRA range survey came out and said the berms, already 15ish foot , needed to be twice that high and all...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    Any body that has done the range check out procedures , the proper terms escape me now , for the military with all the calibers, range fans , safety plans , and such should understand what Frank is talking about . The thing to remember here is the board begrudgingly approved steel on the 1k...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    Properly designed , fabricated , and hung targets have almost no chance of ric's with centerfire rifle rounds . The bullets hit the plate and disintegrate . Ric's with rifle rounds come from shooting damaged steel and targets mounted improperly . Steel needs to be mounted so there is some give...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    You just said yourself that people have been removed from the membership for infractions . Ask yourself why this wasn't handled the same way and just punishing the offenders and not the entire membership . This is gunclub politics and them using what happened to do away with something they...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    I hear almost monthly from the guy's I shoot with about getting hassled about shooting steel on the 1k line with properly positioned plates , both by general membership and people that represent themselves as in authority . This is 100% gunclub politics driven by grouchy old asshole syndrome...

    Colorado Rifle Club Bans Steel Targets on the 1,000 Yard Hi-Power Range

    The board at CRC has been historically biased against anything but the NRA disciplines . It wasn't all that long ago that " humanoid " targets were prohibited . Looks like some jackasses gave them their excuse . I wouldn't hold my breath to them revisiting the issue and changing their minds .

    Rifle Scopes Tunneling - Here's what it looks like.

    Yeah it was a rhetorical question that they still refuse to answer . The only problem I've got with my 5 - 25 is coming up with the cash to rotate my other stuff out and get 2 more of them .

    Rifle Scopes Tunneling - Here's what it looks like.

    And nobody has defined " does not work " . Does the scope not track there , does the reticule dimensions change , does the glass get all blurry ? What makes it unusable at 5 - 7 X ?

    As 2014 Approaches does this need to be addressed ?

    Every body keeps missing the part about the match's will still be run and scored the way they are now with the rules they all ready operate under . What Frank is proposing is an independent rating system that the SHOOTER submits their scores to . The guidelines he is proposing are for this...
