Re: Trigger manipulation with Middle Finger? I have to use my middle finger due to an accident a number of years ago. The only problem I have is making sure of where the nub of my index finger is so as to avoid the bolt knob on the recoil. Steel bolt knob + end of bone and nerve endings =...
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots I have a Barska 14-40x 50mm scope on it. Funny you should mention this. I went to my first ever match over Memorial Day weekend, a mid-range match. 1 300 yd relay, 1 500 yd relay and 2 600 yd relays and I discovered a 40x scope is useless. By the time I had...
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots That would work, I just hate that I just put a set of Leupold rings on it that weren't exactly inexpensive. It's only money I guess...
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots I was finally able to find a place called Near Manufacturing that makes some high dollar but high quality mounts all the way to 75 MOA and they make a 35 MOA that fits my rifle, but for the cost of it, plus a few more bucks, i could just sell my present...
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots I have new Savage Model 12 with the accutrigger. I did a Google search and like you said, Remington 700's seem to be the most readily available. Seems 20 MOA is the limit for a Savage.
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots A 30 MOA base would in fact cure my problem, but I was not aware of the availability such a piece. I was hoping the 20 MOA EGW base I got would have solved my problem. But the additional 10 minutes combined with the elevation adjustment I have left in my...
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots This helps, especially the second focal plane info since this seems to apply to my scope. Many thanks for the info. I'll give this a try. I've already found that reducing the magnification is a plus just in general (my scope has a max of 42X) And for what...
Re: Newbie question about Mil-dots Well, the issue is, I don't have enough elevation adjustment on my scope to take it to 1000 yds, even though I have a 20 MOA base on it. I can squeeze maybe 800 out of it, but that be pushing it... I have it set dead nuts for 600 yds, and I was trying to...
I've just started with long distance shooting, primarily F/TR 600 and 1000 yd. My question is, if I have my scope set on, say 30X, and I'm shooting at 1000 yds, how do I calculate how may minutes of angle the distance between each mil dot represent? Or am I trying to compare apples to oranges?
