I have a S&B PMII with P4 fine (1/4MOA) on my TRG42.Zero at 100m.Shooting a 250gr Lapua Scenar at 3030f/s. According to Isnipe on my Iphone 4 it will require 88 click(22MOA) to get to 1000m.Can anyone verify this?Calibre .338lapua.Scope is in the 1st focal plane 5-25x56

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Im not asking 100% accurate,just an idea still learning,it would be about 32 celcuis,altitude 1650m,angle to target 15 deg downwards,location South Africa.
Why the cocky remark?Im just asking for help not an argument!

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
I'm interested about a 1000M range here in RSA, Please let me know!!!
Regards & good luck!

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Don't feel attacked Marco,
It's just that Met-conditions plays a hell of a roll and at 1000m 1/2 mill-rad click is a full 0.5m POI shift, so it is very important knowing the altitude density... it’s a Factor of barometric pressure altitude and temp. And that's excluding angle to target.
Use a co-sine indicator if you can find one. Think Safari & Outdoor's got one. Use the number under the line & multiply your range with zero-decimal x reading x distance. Now use dope for the calculated equivalent distance…
IE:
Rangefinder distance = 350m
Co-Sine reading = 85
Equivalent distance is 0.85 x 350 = 297.5m
Dial in using your DOPE for 297.5m and hold dead on.
Remember to use actual distance & flight time for moving tgt hold over & wind…
Hope this sheds some light on the question…
If I mixed things up, please correct me guys…

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Hi RSA-Raven thanx,for info,
Im going to a farm in Naboom this weekend,will try this.
Where you from,let me know,maybe we can go shooting together,I know a few farms where one can shoot a km +

RSA-raven, regarding angle shots the "horizontal range" is not a good method, take a look at this:

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Thank you for the link Trio,
Granted that your IRR is better than the RR, but I doubt that Marco needs that detailed explenation at this stage.
BTW, Congrats on the mention in the published page.

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Will let you guys know how I progressed.
Thanx for all the help realy appreciated it!

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Where are you guys in SA?
I studied in U. of Pretoria back in the early 90's, and have many friends in your beautiful country
Raven, I just mentioned the IRR because it is just as fast and easy to use/remember as the RR, but more accurate.

Trio, I'm In Johannesburg Pretoria Area.
Actually I used to wotk at TUKS a few years ago.
Next time you come visiting S-Africa, give a heads up & we'll make a plan to go shooting...
Thx for the info...

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Sure I remember the good old days and gorgeous afrikaner girls... I toured all RSA and neighboring countries by car and also backpacking, almost stayed in SA but came back to Paraguay, I prefer our local flavor of political shit.
Do yo know that most jakarandas came from paraguay?

Sounds pretty right to me- perhaps a tad pessimistic.
From top of my head, near sealevel it should be around 85-87 clicks.

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Marco, are you on gunsite? I'd not be suprised if you and I have met somewhere...
Do you shoot handgun as well or only LR-Rifle..?

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Ok ,could only get 800m,angle to target was -1deg.wind speed was 9.7km/h 120deg left to right.58 clicks up 5 clicks left.Hitted the plate ,but not centre.Success rate about 70%,but it was a good experience!

Re: Schmidt&Bender to distance 1000m
Nice... that's quite a wind & shooting from koppies usually makes things interesting...
Let us know how next round went...
