    Rifle Scopes Scope adjustment for a 20 MOA base

    Re: Scope adjustment for a 20 MOA base Enough for What? To shoot at 1k you will need approximately 40-42 minutes of adjustment to make it! Although the 168SMKs aren't gonna do it very well, so, you may wanna think about sticking to 800 yards or so or changing bullets. A 20 MOA base and 71...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns My new IWB holster

    Re: My new IWB holster Make that a "J" hook so it goes under the belt and hooks! Still slips over the pants and under the belt, even more concealed. Just a thought!

    Mini Stock Pad

    Re: Mini Stock Pad I have prototype 2 installed currently and Proto 3 looks to be a much more streamlined and universal design. All in all, quality is excellent, function is excellent, and fit will probably follow suit with the newest design. As they say, form follows function, and this is...

    Range Report Hydrostatic Shock Information

    Re: Hydrostatic Shock Information I don't disagree with you on the soft tissue wound. I was more or less making reference to headshots. Being an LE Sniper, that seems to more of our focus and that being the case, it is not a myth. I have no doubt that a bullets energy is absorbed in the...

    Range Report Hydrostatic Shock Information

    Re: Hydrostatic Shock Information Hydrostatic SHOCK my be a myth, but Hydrostatics/hydraulics is very real.... Put fluid in a closed container and then add the pressure of a high velocity bullet (especially one designed for expansion). You will get an overpressure which is why everyone...

    Advanced Marksmanship wind doping

    Re: wind doping Great point Greg! We are reading the wind, which means what we are seeing is already passed. Predicting the wind, well, that's a new ballgame. Time of flight of an average .308 bullet for 1k, what about 1.5 to 1.75 seconds. I don't know about you, but I can't see that far...

    Advanced Marksmanship wind doping

    Re: wind doping When I changed the program to show the Linear path it shows an 18.7" deviation in elevation between a 20mph 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock wind. FWIW

    Advanced Marksmanship wind doping

    Re: wind doping Ch'e Same principal I posted about the wind using LB3. When I input my information: GAP HRT .308, Hornady 168 grain TAP, MV 2652 (chronographed), BC .230 g7 Using the following wind conditions and shot angle: 60* Angle (most extreme the program would allow) No Wind...

    Advanced Marksmanship wind doping

    Re: wind doping My point had nothing to do with what I shoot or don't shoot. It was strictly an example based totally on theory. The theory of multiple wind zones affecting a bullet equally relative to distance and not compensating for bullet speed. Clearly, LB must consider this somewhat...

    Advanced Marksmanship wind doping

    Re: wind doping I am a long way from claiming any expert knowledge here, which is why I will let the numbers from Loadbase 3.0 do the talking. I used my parameters from my system: GAP HRT .308, Hornady 168 grain TAP, MV 2652 (chronographed), BC .230 g7 Using Multiple Wind Zone option (only...

    Mini Stock Pad

    Seems that somewhere I saw a stock pad that would fit the integral cheek piece of a McMillan or even Manners for that matter. It was not a full stock pack as we are all familiar with! It attached in the same manner but the pad only cover the moveable part and the straps went between the cheek...

    Re: Seekins 34mm Low, 6/4 cap screw Rings I got a set of these a long time ago..... Glen was super to talk to and deal with. He wasn't offering them at that time, but he accomodated by matching up a 4 screw set and a 6 screw set. I bought both and had prearranged to sell the other set to...

    Range Report Shooter Ballistics app now for iPhone

    Re: Shooter Ballistics app now for iPhone Anyone having this issue? As you can see, in the solution screen, the windage corrections are actually in the elevation layout area. There is no information in the windage area except for the main correction by unit.

    LE SERT/SWAT Snipers?

    Re: LE SERT/SWAT Snipers? I tried the safariland holster and found out it was like a shovel on a stalk! The rigid kydex picked up dirt like an excavator! I switched to the eagle nylon holster. It seemed to hug the gun a little better keeping debris out! It's still in the same carry...
