Ever notice that you always hear women bitching about sex with men, but you never hear gay dudes doing it? Obviously women are the problem not dudes.

Name one time you’ve heard anyone on this list bitch about their sexual relations with men.

Nope, you have never complained that it hurt.

Rifle Scopes My first what scope thread

I was scouring feedback on existing threads and some feedback was that it was tight and others was that it was useable. I actually prefer the MSR2 on the Steiner but good to know about the Zeiss.

Well eye box is not an issue with the Zeiss. It’s easy to get behind. Used three of them, two 6-36 and a 4-25, on match rifles and never and issue getting behind them on props and odd positions. I definitely would take a harder look at it just due to the reticle.

I have a question about SSF. I did a tracking test via a 15 mil measurement. No shooting, just tracking the reticle movement over distance. Easy math example, 15 mils at 100 yards equals 54 inches. In my case the scope took 152 clicks to cover the distance, not the expected 150 clicks.

My question is what do I put in the SSF correction? I come up with three possible scenarios:
1. Actual click value. 15 mils/152 clicks=0.098684 which seems to far away from the standard 1.00 SSF
2. Actual movement/expected movement. 0.098684/0.1=0.98684
3. Expected movement/actual movement. 0.1/.098684=1.0133 Basically it takes more clicks to actually get the 15 mils.

After trying to type this all out I suspect my SSF should be set to 1.0133 because that is what it actually took to get the full 15 mils of movement.

May the Reloading Gods Forgive Me...

They shot OK, but I hadn't really tuned them for depth. I took my arbor press out with me and tinkered and got decent results. 1:8 on the twist.

I will say that the trace is significantly better. The ground was a little damp and at ~1840 there wasn't a miss that I didn't see. By contrast, spotting misses with my 300 PRC was probably 75%. @Bmghunter was there with me shooting his 6.5 PRC and the ground just gobbled up his rounds without a trace.


I'm trying to remember if you have the Warner Tool 37xc die... do you use the same seater stem with A Tips and solids?
I'm wondering if a Wilson 33xc Arbor die could be opened up to fit 37xc or better to start with a blank.

Trace is better with copper jacked over solids?

Thanks again,
Scott
