I am using a 36 x leaupold. I have my first match tomorrow. It is a score match. I am suprisingly calm. I have practacing the last 3 weekends shooting at the dot. With my 36x scope & a small amount of mirage the dot is hard to see. So I can see why a higher power scope is needed. But on the other hand when the scope has more power doesnt it make the mirage look worse.
The second ? is. How to shoot in real bad mirage. I have been told to wait & let the conditions blow the mirage out & then put my crosshairs on the dot. If I do this & there is no wind everything is good. If I have a right left wind & I wait for what I am assuming is the wind to blow the mirage out but never does & I am running out of time. Are ther any Aids to help me with the mirage? Such as the 2 laminated wind charts that I keep in my loading box that someone from BRC posted for me that helps me with the wind. So I get my gun on target as best possible & then the wind switches left to right,the moth ball is trying to jump out of my field of view. Let alone trying to see the dot. So this is where a good windage top comes into play. I would dial in some left windage & hope for the best. Is there any thing other than trigger time that helps in mirage.
I hope I didnt confuse anyone. Any help would be appreciated.
