    Square vs Circle steel gongs

    hey thanks man I'm in Australia we have very limited range of companies making targets compared to the US. Yeah I will only be shooting for personal use however was interested kinda in the "ethics" of it like you say with the norcal shooters who claim that hitting the corners is a miss just...

    Square vs Circle steel gongs

    So I was just about to order a 18inch circle gong and it just occurred to me that a circle gong is going to be a lot harder to hit at range than a square gong. Unless your vertical is dead set spot on your are not going to get the full width of your gong to use. Windage is going to be a lot...

    wind reading downrange

    yup I was just about to post about how I was confused as well but skookums post clears that up a bit. Reading the mirage at 600 when shooting 1000 as an example is only really useful for someone with a spotting scope as by the time you readjust your parallax etc to shoot at 1000 after backing...

    I can't shoot to save myself

    Thanks mate it is prone off an atlas bipod and red tac rear squeeze bag. I have some snap caps and I will try why you say next time and do some dry fire in between. Normally I only dry fire at home. Your right to be honest I don't enjoy shooting groups at 100m I much prefer shooting milk...

    I can't shoot to save myself

    Hey man thanks for the reply. Respectfully I have no idea what you are talking about. I'm trying to aim at the centre of the circles and trying to centre punch them? Isn't that what we are supposed to do here?

    I can't shoot to save myself

    This is Franks dot drill the dots are the 3/4 inch dots. As you can see it was an epic fail. The centre top and centre far right shots that say Biggs was 2 shots my brother took first time using this gun he did better than me. It seems most of my shots go just down and right off dots. This is...

    Maybe trump doesn't want an all out world war involving Russia?? Just a guess here but I'm sure if he intervened at the level you are talking about here is Russia likely to step aside without responding? This is how things rapidly escalate throughout history. One thing leads to another and...

    Civil War

    Do you reckon the UK or france would even try to threaten Russia with their nukes considering the nuclear capacity Russia has if pushed?? Bit like the chiauwawa taking on the pitbull I think.

    Civil War

    I think Russia most likely takes all of western Europe without the US backing I seriously doubt even GB being an island can save them from the red army. Looking at history of WW2 once that red army got rolling the only way to stop it was the US bailing out the wester allies. Stallin would have...

    Oh how the worm turns ...

    one issue I see happening here with the youtube issue is that the left are winning by having all firearms groups fracture into several different places. There are reloading people going to one place, there are others going to full30, others like james yeager creating their own hosting sites...

    Aaaaand...Bump stocks are gone!

    I'm watching all this that's going on in the US from Australia here and on the various youtube channels and hope that I'm wrong but It seems you guys are on a VERY slippery slope as to what happened here in Australia except it looks like there they are doing it inch by inch. what they are...

    Assault Weapons Ban of 2018

    Not that you guys need to hear this but I think our country Australia is a good reminder of what will happen to you guys if they push for these semi auto bans etc. We started off with bans on semi autos, pump action shot guns etc back in 1996 which is what the media both here and from what I...

    Tall target test results and zero issues

    Ok thanks I will try recant the scope using a level line on a wall what distance do you reccomend is 50m to close to do this or should it be 100m? I did the crossbolts to nightforce reccomended 65inch lbs but the actual screws that go into the top of the scope rings were 25inch lbs.
