I went shooting a couple days ago, got a AAC muzzle brake put on my ACR wanted to see how it was. When I pulled up to the 300 yard range I saw another vehicle, which usually is annoying worrying about the person. This would not be the case today.
The gentleman who is shooting has a spotting scope out, some 22-250 in a really pretty wood stock, and he is pretty old. I start off with a friendly intro asking how he was doing today, and he is not having fun. He was not hitting paper, I offered to help, he said please do.
I go out, put a smaller shoot-n-see up at 100 yards, bore scope with Ye Ole Pirate Eye method down the bore, its way off. At 100 yards he was about 1.5 feet off! I was worried the Millet might not have that kind of adjustment, but it did. I say go for it, lets try it out, I will spot for you. He shoots and hits right below the bullseye! Hot damn its right on he says.
This dude? He joined the USCG in 1946. He was in for life, and was stationed most of it on the coast of Alaska, Kodiak specifically. I ended up spotting for him for about 1.5 hours or so (told the wife I would only be 30 minutes max) and loved every minute of it.
I can only hope that when I am around 80yrs I can do as well as he did, as well as, just live that long.
I did end up shooting finally, and yes that brake works marvelously. Only 30 rounds about as quick as I could go, to prevent wife anger.
