    Mirage: Squiggly diagrams translating to real life

    Thanks so much Skookum I had seen that gun works one but those other 2 videos you provided are extremely helpful. You are one of the most helpful members of this forum frank should be paying you!!!

    Mirage: Squiggly diagrams translating to real life

    A thread with pics like skookums first one with the fire would be epic with a corresponding this is what a 5mph wind looks like etc would be epic, I have looked at the second one blown up on PC and there is no way I can tell even the direction from that pic. But the first fire pic I can sorta...

    Mirage: Squiggly diagrams translating to real life

    Skookum in that pic there I wouldn't be able to tell if that was left or right and certainly not the speed?? What exactly are you looking at here to determine the direction and speed?

    Mirage: Squiggly diagrams translating to real life

    Bolt bandit I have the exact same question and I would say skookums picture is about the best ive seen to describe it. I have searched youtube and there is literally nothing, the best I came up with was a video from John Mcquay that went for a few mintues showing mirage through his scope and...

    Rifle Scopes Best glass for $1k?

    This is what I thought, the OP asked about best glass for this price there have been many recommendations of vortex, Athlon etc and I think a lot of these people are including the features and reticles etc in their advice. Id like to ask again on a glass vs glass $ v $ comparison can anyone...

    Rifle Scopes Best glass for $1k?

    There are comparisons here of scopes at new $ vs another scope at used price this is rubbish. I don't think its fair to compare a new scope that might cost $1000 vs someone comparing a $1500-2000 new priced scope that they bought for $1000 used. Can someone say without bias that there is a...

    Rifle Scopes Scope Image Quality Degredation Near Vertical Elevation Limits?

    I'm about to test this theory on my own scope. Sightron siii 8-32 is currently on a 20moa base and mounted very low on barrel. With a 100m zero I still have 27moa of down. I'm going to put either a 40 or 45 moa base on it which will leave me 2moa from the bottom and all the elevation up.

    Rifle Scopes Best glass for $1k?

    Another vote For sightron siii. Not sure if it's the best but pretty damn good for price.

    Rifle Scopes Your description of "Unusable Glass"?

    The Schmidt and bender 12x50 And march highmaster are both $3000 scopes I would hope they resolve better than a sightron. My sightron is clear enough on 32 power even in rainy weather for less than 1/3 the price I can live with slightly less resolution than. Schmidt and bender

    Rifle Scopes Your description of "Unusable Glass"?

    I think it was the burris guy that mentioned once that this site is so heavily weighted towards the top end of town in scopes that it is in danger of toppling over was spot on. If you were to follow most here you would be looking at the nightforcr atacr line, khales, pm2, etc etc My fixed...

    How to make ballistic AE and hornady 4dof change to 1/4 min

    Thanks. Does anyone who uses ballistic AE know how I go about my second question it allows you to put plus or minus in the "zero height" feature?

    How to make ballistic AE and hornady 4dof change to 1/4 min

    I'm basically very technically challenged. I mostly use ballistic AE and sometimes Hornady 4dof. I'm trying to set up a profile for a new moa scope (previously used mils which worked with .1 readings) Both ballistic AE and 4dof give readings such as 20.4 moa or 30.2 moa. My scope is in...

    329 grain 338...WTF Berger?

    Berger is full of shit in general, here in Australia most couldn't care less about the new EOL line we would just be happy if they sent their current range more frequently than once every 18months. They send just enough to the importer that they sell out in 20mins, if your not on the internet...

    Rifle Scopes FFP vs SFP ?

    What this guy said, this site is 99% focused on "tactical" style shooting. Anyone in the f class world/bench rest world or looking to shoot small groups/targets at known distance is probably better off with sfp. I tend to shoot targets such as 2 litre milk bottles that represent a 0.5-0.7 moa...

    Rifle Scopes Is Franks review of the SWFA 5-20HD still relevant?

    hahaha yep, the swfa was a serious contender as I already own one but in the end I went with a sfp to have a small reticle at higher power. Both scopes are very hard to find a bad word about them.

    Rifle Scopes Is Franks review of the SWFA 5-20HD still relevant?

    Thanks y'all I ended up going with a sightron siii 8-32

    Rifle Scopes What am I missing mark5hd vs ?

    If the f class and bench rest crew are right you may have to spend significantly more money than your siii to get a 5% improvement over the sightron. It is widely said that the sightron is very hard to beat dollar for dollar.

    Rifle Scopes Is Franks review of the SWFA 5-20HD still relevant?

    Hey yall thanks for the excellent feedback, main reason I guess I was looking at the swfa is like I said I already own the fixed 12x and there isn't anything I can fault with it other than being a fixed power. I'm in Australia and vortex scopes are not priced very well here from my...
