    Advanced Marksmanship reading mirage with rifle scope?

    The method to see mirage with a spotting scope is to focus on your target and then make a 1/4 turn back. Could I do this with my rifle scope or is there a reason I should not? Just something I thought of. Thanks, John

    Tripod vs Bipod

    Re: Tripod vs Bipod Also don't forget the use of both together. For example I deployed my bipod legs and rested that on the trunk of my car and used the tripod(very flimsy cheep POS)to support the rear of the rifle. I had to do this at a place I used to shoot at as the veg was over grown. But...

    Re: Rear bag design and usage When using "tube" style bags I lay it on the ground with the strap(strap that runs from top and bottom)on top. So all I have to do is slip my hand in the strap and rotate my hand up. So its the rotation of my hand that fine tunes my elevation and I can still...
