New Contest Starting Now! This Target Haunts Me
Tell us about the one that got away, the flier that ruined your group, the zero that drifted, the shot you still see when you close your eyes. Winner will receive a free scope!
Do you mean with the flashlight? Cos I did use a 4 ft level to mark a line on the wall? I did torque rings recently they are nightforce rings torqued to 25inch/lbs but I will recheck that again
Ok so the gun is a 6.5x47l shooting 139 scenars the scope is a swfa 12x.
Let's start with the positive from this test the distance this was shot at was exactly 100metres. The distance between my 2 shots at the bottom and the 2 shots at the top after dialling 10mil is exactly 100cm so the scope...
hi yes I was thinking ply wood that was reasonably thick, I was thinking at those distances with a 6.5 it wouldn't punch through so easily and might cause the wood to wobble etc. Ive never shot steel at all only cardboard I wear both ear plugs and earmuff as my rifle is as loud as fuck with a...
Just wondering if anyone has tried using sheet ply for a long range target to get some practice on. Was thinking like a 4ftx4ft ply painting it white and maybe with some reflective tape on top and hanging by chains.
Will a 6.5mm round move this enough to see impacts from 1000+m? or will it...
At the ELR event just had the guy that was one of 3 people to hit 3 from 3 at 1500 was using a fixed swfa!!!!! Not sure what power but makes me happy about my fixed 12x swfa purchase.
How's ol mate form with what almost looks like a 7mm hunting rifle compared to the 2 guys next to hims rifles that look like they are worth more than my house!!!! With a swfa scope what a legend what power is his scope anyone know?? He gives me some inspiration to get into long range with my...
Lowlight wondering what franks thoughts are on what mark and sam are doing?? With all the talk in ELR atm is the ELR community in the states aware of mark and sam??
Thanks mate that is clearer now can you also please explain once zero'd dialling for wind. I only use the reticle as it's easy enough if the wind is coming from right to left I hold to the right of the target and the wind blows it onto the target so to speak.
with dialing for wind let's say the...
So I thought I had zero'd my rifle last time I went out I seem to be having a heck of a time to get it zero'd properly.
my first question is today was my first time using my red tac rear squeeze bag prior to this I was just using a couple of blocks of wood or some novels with a heat pack I had...
Hi mate I was also looking into this with my 6.5x47l was going to get H4831 and try it. I think you need to have a large freebore with your gun if you want to try it anf possibly single load.
i have a .250 freebore in mine so I can seat 139 scenars at 2.840 which is around 100 thou longer than...
hi thanks mate I think you are spot on with whats happening and the description you give with the creek makes it very clear, unfortunately I cannot alter the road between the crops. Looks like I will just have to roll with what I have and record as much as I can and see how it changes day to...
This is a difficult one as my research on this shows numbers vary wildly depending on which comparator someone is using. I'm using 139 scenars which with my 6.5 comparator measure base to ogive of .717 I'm looking for a match bullet 6.5 that has a longer base to ogive than this as I want to...
