do they make a special mount for that?

the guy at the gunshow assured me that 7.62X39 egyptian tracer was "match grade" and used to this day by SF/SEAL/DELTA/RANGER/snipers.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

LOL. If you can't hit anything with the S&B, I will swap you a Tasco 4x40 for you're scope. LOL.

I've saved you're pic in my folder.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

That barrel is way too long to be accurate. Didn't you know short barrels were the rage nowadays (LOL)?
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

Mounting the scope a few inches higher would help, and I would recommend using high quality ammo.... Wolf is known for it's EXTREMELY high quality 7.62.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

I have the same setup and it hammers! I can easily hold 1/2 moa out to a grand in heavy switching winds ... at night.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

This setup works really well for some if you change your perspective and view from the muzzle end. You can't miss

Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

With those 2 screws securing the dust cover everything should be GTG, maybe try another mag, the wind up Chi Comm 75 round mags aren't providing you a good surface to shoot prone from, try taping 6 40 round mags together.

I don't mean to insult you or anyone else that has previously posted; however as you can see from the enclosed picture your scope was not designed for that firearm. If you attach it to a firearm better designed for the scope and mounts you will have far better results.

The problem is with the rings. If you remove the rings it will make it much easier to hit things with the scope.

Does that have the new .22 LR BDC?
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

I opened this thread thinking an epic smackdown was about to be laid by forum members to the OP. Glad it was a joke!
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

I'm thinking your applying too much pressure when you sling up for the shot. Free float that barrel. An F class rest would also allow you to take advantage of that glass.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

It's the "muscle break", not the optic!

Only open one lens cap, I'm sure that is it.

How say you on cheekweld, OP??
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

You need to turn it upside down, the elevation has been setup backwards on that model because the rounds feed upside down from that special type of magazine - that's your problem lucky S&B has thought of everything!
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

Lot of money to drop on an optic that doesn't work. Give SB a good public flaming to get them off their arses.

You should get a good two to three posts in before big Rob01 center punches you...
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

You need to expend at least 50rds into the air to settle the scope into its mount. Then your groups will start tightening up nicely. Dont forget to close your eyes and say a prayer while squeezing the trigger.

You're gonna run out of elevation without a 30MOA mount.

I can't believe you didn't listen to thedude, that's what your doing wrong... Here is how my setup is

I do .5 moa with this, I can't imagine with a bender scope. Just set it up right and you will be looking back at this later and laughing how you made this simple mistake
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!


I know it is your breathing and the fact that you are to tight on that sling. It's not an arm wrestling match you are holding it like the secret srevice held the p90.

Having a bubble level on a pistol is just ridiculous.......

i sure hope not

(this glass is for the lack of a better word... AMAZING!)
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

oh boy, i havent laughed this hard in awhile. Red Jacket is taking orders as we speak!! =)
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

To the OP, I'm sure the glass is fine, but one thing I would try is don't use the drum mag as a support/bipod when firing. It puts undue stress on those fine stamped receivers which can cause accuracy issues.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

Send it to me and I'll figure out what the problems are with the set up. Might take a while to get it back to you, just so you know.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

It's a poor craftsman who places the blame on his tools...
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

The issue is that it does not have a picatinny rail on it. If you slap a picatinny rail on that bad boy (like I did my Ruger) that will solve half your problem. Picatinny rails solve all problems.

Solid advice........A rig like like should be sub-moa all day long, if you were doing your part.

HEY, not fair, I was gonna say that.

Well, I guess brilliant minds think alike.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

The best thing you could do is send it to Red Jacket. There the best. Youll be hitting dimes at 1000 on full auto when there done working on it. If you dont believe me check out there TV show.
 
Re: schmidt and bender... what a joke!

Get behind it, learn to drive it, address the trigger. Better get a 200 moa base.


Hand loads are the way to go. Start with 1 gr. of Varget. Work up slowly.
