    Reading wind

    Re: Reading wind I can attest to the Oklahoma winds. I absolutely hate them, unless it's one of our lovely 100+ temp days of summer. Then it is a necessity to breathe. ;-) I hate the wind. Whoever came up with "One shot, one kill", obviously never shot distance in Oklahoma. If they did...

    Question on improving accuracy

    Re: Question on improving accuracy The online training here, has been a wealth of knowledge. I would read, then read again, every lesson. Put lead down range and focus very hard at implementing all the practices covered in it. It helped me considerably. It will take you months to read...

    Re: Hoping rifle when shooting with a bipod... Broken_Reticle. Sorry I didn't notice before. It looked like your shoulders are not square. It appears your left elbow if further forward than your right elbow, creating an angle in your shoulders. This will cause the butt of the gun to...

    Magpul MBUS sites at 200 yards.

    Re: Magpul MBUS sites at 200 yards. BTW. To set your irons from 100 to a 200 yd zero, you will have to turn your front sight post to the right (clockwise). How many clicks can vary by manufacturer. Just check and then confirm at the range. A front sight tool is only about $10 and makes it...

    Magpul MBUS sites at 200 yards.

    Re: Magpul MBUS sites at 200 yards. It sounds like your irons are set for a 100 yd zero so you are having to hold high (covering your target) at 200 yards. I zero at 200 yds and aim using a dead on hold, Anything from 25-235 I will hit within 2 inches of where I'm aiming. High inside of 200...

    Rifle Scopes Choosing optics

    Re: Choosing optics I actually found your humor to be good. It really made me laugh. I actually thought you were funny by continuing to push for the sniper credentials. Sorry I didn't communicate that better. I have no sensibilities. ;-)

    Rifle Scopes Choosing optics

    Re: Choosing optics What I don't like about the BDCs are that they are designed around one weight of bullet at one velocity. I would rather a standard scope with hashes that pertained to actual units of measure rather than the constants of a fixed round.

    Palmetto State Armory

    Just wanted to say how great these Guys are. Right up there with Triad Tactical. I've been reading about the success in Afghanistan, using 77gr 5.56. I have an older AR that has a 1:9 twist. Many people say some 1:9s will stabilize it so I ordered some 77gr & 75gr. The 75gr has been on...

    Rifle Scopes FFP vs. SFP question

    Re: FFP vs. SFP question I would not get a BDC. The BD variable will change based on weather & altitude so you will still need to fudge a little. A standard reticle will do you just fine. If you will be shooting 200 and in, there will not be much drop anyway. If you shoot slow and dial...
