    Fieldcraft Mils, Yards and Meters and MOA

    I have a scope that ranges in Mils, and adjusts in MOA's. I am just now starting to get into shooting at odd distances. (It is easy if you only shoot at exactly 1K and it is measured off) If you range with mils does it make it easier to use yards or meters for range? If you adjust with MOA...

    I have a couple of Savage 10FP's, one in .308 and the other in .223. I load Hornady bullets in both guns, and both rifles shoot .75 MOA. My .308 load uses a 168gr BTHP's out to roughly 2650, while my .223 load uses 75gr BTHP's at 2925. Now, according to the Hornady site, the BC of the 168gr...

    Ok.. I am wanting to build another precision rifle and am tossing up between 2 ideas. Either Use my hunting rifle's action (Howa 30/06) and build it from there onwards, or fork out the ect. $$$ and go a new action in .338 Lapua. I Know the .338 LM is a superior round though i am taking money...

    Wolf ME sucks past 300 yards

    Got the Wolf ME (1048 fps) out today, (perfect conditions, dead calm 75 degrees). My groups at 400 yards were about 30-36 inches vertical by about 10 inches wide, not enough to reliably hit my 16" X 20" steel at 400 yards. Hit the steel about 60%. The High Velocity Federal AE (1248 fps) was...

    Shot 600 yards for the first time tonight....

    I'm actually a little impressed with myself. Out of the 20 rounds I fired at a 6" X I had: 7 - X hits (one of which was dead on tits center) 10 - 10 rings 2 - 9 rings 1 - 8 ring Not too shabby for my first time out at 600 yards. With my current loads I am about 19.5 MOA of drop at 600 yards.

    Range Report Wind at 200 yards?

    I was shooting today at 200-250yds with my 700P, having no working knowledge of ballistics (yet) I noticed some of my shots (.308, 168gr FGGM) were WAY off target at this close range, there was a sustained wind of 18-27mph on the range, could this wind at this close of a range affect my shots in...

    1/2 MOA at 1760 yards doable??

    Just wondering if this is too far fetched to think I, or anybody for that matter, can get .5 moa at a mile. Custom built 338 Lapua, sub .5 moa at 1000. Just for conversation... Don't have the above rifle yet.

    Range Report bullet drifting right at 500 + yards,

    Hey any ideas? I am still getting the hang of shooting past 300 yds. Consistently my rifle will be dead on at 100, but as I move out too 500 and beyond I am hitting right. at 700 yds about 1.25-1.75 moa. Any ideas? I don't have a great amount of faith in my scope and am wanting to know if...
