When you show up to the range do you just sit down and start shooting or do have a procedure that you follow? What I mean by that is, do you show up and start measuring the temp, barometric pressure, obviously wind, and the other stuff?
I’ve been shooting long range for about a year and a half now and for whatever reason I don’t seem to hitting the targets as consistently as I’d like to be out past 500 yards. I know the rifle can do it, because it already has on all the nice calm “perfect” days for shooting. I’ve hit targets at 1000 yards, but only on the not too windy days.
I need to get a better understanding of how the environmental conditions effects my shots. If anyone knows of a good book to read I’d be happy to read it. If anyone uses the little wind, temp, pressure gauges and thinks it’s worth buying I’d appreciate some guidance there too.
