Re: Looking for advice, $2100 to spend on first scope. Awesome, I see now steve, and thats for posting that link! Thank you! Norcal, you are so right.. I bought a Dan Wesson pm7 .45 a year ago, and I still havent shot it... I ordered the z5 today, 3.5-18x44 with the ballistic turret. I...

Re: Looking for advice, $2100 to spend on first scope. Ahh, so one click of the turret gives you more elevation? Now is that the hash marks or do you mean "turret revolution" as in 360deg of rotation? Two Questions; * how does one figure out the maximum distance a scope will give you for...

Re: Looking for advice, $2100 to spend on first scope. Tactical_Tom and TonyAngel Z5 3.5-18x44 compared to z6 3-18x50 are pretty much the same? Difference being light gathering of 50mm at max mag and elev/windage adjustments of the 30mm tube? Tom I agree, I don’t think Im the worst shot, but...

Re: Looking for advice, $2100 to spend on first scope. Steve that is a good idea on getting together with other members. Im not really leery on hash marks in the reticle, mainly the mildot. I was planning on getting Swar BRH/BRX reticle. I was curious about their ballistic turret. With the...

Re: Looking for advice, $2100 to spend on first scope. Thanks for the reply. This will be my only shooting rifle. I wont be hunting all time, I will get more use at the range. I hear, once you understand the mildot its a great reticle, but for me, I think its to busy. S&B has me pondering...

Hey guys, I bought my first rifle, a Sako A7 in 7mm rm. Im kind of overwhelmed on what scope I should buy. I have $2100 to spend, and to me it’s a huge purchase. (I don’t plan on buying another scope of this caliber for a very long time) I have been researching scopes for a few months now...

Re: Can you help make sure this is right Thanks for the reply! I checked out the site, and ran the numbers, but it doesnt give me bullet drop in inches, and how many clicks to compensate. When you say "You scope is in mils (.1 mil per "click")" would that be for the range cards on the JBM site?

Hi guys, I have a few questions on the JBM calculator, and Im wondering if you could double check my numbers and help me figure out the range cards. I feel the simplified trajectory card is accurate except for the elevation differences; my question is on the atmospheric differences when he...

Re: What do I use, 1/3moa or 1/3 inch clicks? Gotcha! Thanks again guys

Re: What do I use, 1/3moa or 1/3 inch clicks? Another question, when sighting your rifle in at 100yards, how high should the bullet hit the 100yard target if you wanted zeroed in at 300 yards? Would it be 3" high or 10" high at a 100 yards to hit the bullseye at 300 yards? Thanks

Re: What do I use, 1/3moa or 1/3 inch clicks? Ahh, I did notice when I bore sighted it, that 10 clicks would move me up/down one graticule. That makes sense about PBR, thanks, I love learning new things! I have spent like four days searching info, I have even emailed swarovski (no reply)...

Thanks for viewing this post. I am trying to understand how to adjust this scope. It is a Swarovski Habicht 3-12x50. I use it for hunting. On the turrets it says 1 click = 1cm/100m (and) .36in/100yards. I have been using the jbm calculator. Doing some math, bullet drp/yards x 3 get me close to...
