    Rifle Scopes Vortex viper pst 2 MOA VS MRAD

    What in the fuck... Do you live in the US? I am not a gambling man but I would bet you will find very few places in the US that will give you target size in millimeters. Plugging in the value in a calculator or using an analog device like truemiller or mildot master is going to be faster then...

    Rifle Scopes Vortex viper pst 2 MOA VS MRAD

    12" target at 700 yards would result in mil reading of .476. If you milled it at .5 MILs, you get 666.48 yards. My 6.5 Creedmoors 700 yard elevation is 4.8 mils, it is 4.5 mils for 666.48 yards. If I milled with .5 MILs and shot at a 12" target at 700 yards with a 666.48 dope, the center...

    Alpha Dasher brass

    I did not know that. I guess I will disregard them as a sign of something wrong. I'll have to see how much the cases grew and how it behaves on a second firing.

    American Rifle Company New Archimedes Action, New Xylo Chassis, and major Mausingfield revision

    I don't think many people who shoot precision rifles want monopods on their rifles. I have a hard enough time not tensing up and causing my shoulder to be a pivot point, I certainly don't want to add another one into the mix.

    Alpha Dasher brass

    Here are my stats with my Alpha brass: 31.6 First shot of the day was like 2840 so I removed it from the Velocity Stats {Avg 2880, SD 6.1, 5 Shot with magneeto attached @ 100 .613 MOA}, 31.8 {Avg 2886, SD 2.6, 5 Shot with magneeto attached @ 100 .525 MOA}, 32 {Avg 2900, SD 4.6, 5 Shot with...

    Applied Ballistics Mobile App - Sight Offset not changing any numbers.

    I tried giving AB a zero offset of 2" and the data for a sight offset of 10 inches and 0 inches are the same.

    Applied Ballistics Mobile App - Sight Offset not changing any numbers.

    So if both the rifle and scope are level, there is 0 sight offset and the sight height is center of bore to center of scope. But let us say some dude finds a 45 degree rifle cant comfortable. We cant the rifle 45 degrees then relevel the scope to gravity. Let us assume a scope height over bore...

    Applied Ballistics Mobile App - Sight Offset not changing any numbers.

    Correct. Sight offset is going to come from an offset mount, or if you cant the rifle then you are reducing sight height above bore and increasing sight offset (SOH, CAH, TOA and all that magic maths).

    Applied Ballistics Mobile App - Sight Offset not changing any numbers.

    I was playing around with the sight offset numbers and going from 0 inches to 10 inches had zero effect on the elevation/windage. I would expect it to have some impact on windage. I had thought the math would be something like: 10 in offset while leaving it as 10 inch offset at 100 yards would...

    Can something similar work for MOA?

    What determines a barrels life?

    The properties of the steel of that specific barrel matters. The properties of the machining of the bore matters. Your throat dimensions matter. Your rate of fire matters. How hot your load matters. Cleaning matters. Your standards for accuracy matters. Basically every little thing matters and...

    Shooting Both Eyes Open with optics..Do You?

    I do. I have not done PRS, just plinking prone or F Class. #1 reason is to prevent eye fatigue. If I lose the crosshair, I might close my off eye for a few seconds to get it back but usually a simple blink gets my brain to focus back on the reticle.

    Smallest group or smallest SD?

    Are you sure about that? Based on what I have read, there is nothing stopping you from calculating a 95% confidence interval for a 10 shot sample, it is just that the interval is large and will most likely overlap and thus not tell you anything. Ex Power Charge A: SD 5, Sample 10, 95%...

    Terminus Actions

    Is there a lot of play in the magazine when you lock it in and pull down vs when you push up on it? I saw you mention the AW seemed to work with upward pressure, was wondering if the same applied to the AICS. I also read somewhere that the Terminus had a ledge to prevent over-insertion of AICS...

    Mil dot rangefinder app

    What about the truemiller, it is one of those neat circle things that you get to spin around. I bet you could replace your dope card holder thing that people slap on their scopes with this thing and use a little arm band card for dope. You can sing "You spin me right round baby right round" as...

    Why no Remington 700 in .22LR? (not 40-X)

    Do people just search for something related to the one fact they know about guns so they can reply to sound smart and just not realize it’s a 7 year old thread that nobody gives a fuck about.

    PRS Talk What is a PRS MIL ranging stage comprised of?

    How often do they come up in matches? How much time do you have? How stable are the positions? What are the typical range of distances (i.e they never go past 800 yards)? Do people do the calculations in their head or do they use a little calculator? After you get the range do you use a quick...
