    Ballistic charts never seem to work...WHY?

    I don't mean to drag this out any more, but here is how I "teach" new shooters how this works. Lets say you have a lazer beam....a strong one. Lets aim your beam to be dead on at 100 yards. your lazer burns a hole through your target. lets put another target at 200 yards, and 300, all the...

    Ballistic charts never seem to work...WHY?

    I guess I just extended my practice from my huning days.....300 was my main zero......all of my come ups were from that point....I never needed to worry about any distance less than 300, trajectory wise....anything from zero to around 350 was point and shoot....the point blank...

    Ballistic charts never seem to work...WHY?

    3.87 in dif with a 100 yd zero. With a lr rig, why on earth would you have a 100 yard zero. In some cases I CAN'T have a 100 yard zero? Even if I do my load work at 100 I use my 300 yard zero....I don't want the bullets hitting where I aim....it destroys my aim point. Also, I fully...

    IBS 1000 YD HG muzzle brakes

    You are most welcome. I am glad I could help. Hope you shoot better. Tod PS. If you think things smell bad, you should think about bringing some nose plugs along with your hearing protectors. It might help you shoot better also. Again, hope this helps.

    Iowa 2011 matches?

    So what went down with the Brownells deal. I don't need to be an authority to know that the club was going to move to Brownells when the new range was complete. Work never got started last year because Iowa got 3/4 of an inch of rain. Ok...maybe 34 inches of rain....so, as of the IBS nats it...

    IBS 1000 YD HG muzzle brakes

    Also......I guess the only time I have ever even thought about the noise is in the first 3-4 min of the sighter period. After that I don't hear a thing.......except the range officer's count down....and the sound of the wind gentely rustling the flag at the 1000 yard line. If you hear more...

    Using RF during winter for practice.

    Been thinking more about this. I guess my goal is to try and reman in position during the string. Try and keep things smooth. Load...aim ....squeaze.....load....ect...work on the speed a little. I can't see having to pick the gun up off of the bags to cock it. Now, I know that there won't be...

    Using RF during winter for practice.

    I never thought about an air rifle. I usualy have at least one 25-30 lb CO2 tank laying around. I use them to air up my big tires on my rock crawler after a trail ride. I don't like driving on the highway with only 5 lbs of air in my tires and don't like waiting for portable air...

    Using RF during winter for practice.

    I don't shoot rimfire comp. I shoot 1K benchrest. I find myself wanting to shoot more and more in the winter. Asside from snowmobiling, there is not much else to do in the winter in northern ND. I have a 90 foot long basement in my shop. I was thinking about getting a match grade rimfire to...

    "Reading Wind" at 1000 yards in Benchrest competition. I want your opinion?
