    Advanced Marksmanship How to convert inche drop at 1000 Yards to Mils

    This isn’t directed to the OP or anyone in particular but it amazes me how someone will dump a ton of money into a hobby or activity and just ignore learning the basics of how to properly use the gear they buy. Not to knock those learning or just starting out as we all gotta start somewhere but...

    Rifle Competition Events What would you change or do differently with current competitions/organizations?

    I suppose that’s why they call it a competition. :)

    Rifle Competition Events What would you change or do differently with current competitions/organizations?

    I quit shooting PRS years ago and haven’t shot NRL22 in a couple years now. Mostly because of cost but also because I feel there’s a lack of community to it. For people who live near a range that has these competitions that might not be so much the case, but until just the last few years for me...

    Rear bag suggestions

    I have a few different bags. I like my shmedium game changer but I also use this one I made myself. Just depends on what I’m doing or what I’m shooting off of.

    Precision Rifle Gear Budget Tripod review.

    It still amazes me how far tripod use in shooting has come in the last twenty years. I modified my setup from the Army a few times over the years to try and keep up as best I could. I kept the half of a PVC coupler with a piece of puss pad glued inside it as a saddle up until this year and...

    Precision Rifle Gear Budget Tripod review.

    I looked at Two Vets and even applied for their veterans discount but haven’t heard a word from them in well over a month on if I was approved for it or not. I’m sure it’s just a glitch though.

    Precision Rifle Gear Budget Tripod review.

    I would venture to say that at least 80% or better of the people that have things like that are unaware of any patent infringement. True you can just say “buy American” but even then we shoot our own selves in the foot with American companies buying Chinese products and rebranding them and...

    Precision Rifle Gear Budget Tripod review.

    Innorel is what I’ve actually been looking at to replace my old aluminum Vanguard with. But I do have a Leophoto ballhead already.

    Precision Rifle Gear Budget Tripod review.

    No I understand where you’re coming from. I try to stay away from that kind of thing but I’m also not gonna be able to chase down the patent on everything I buy either.

    Precision Rifle Gear Budget Tripod review.

    Not saying you’re wrong at all but a big difference is those expensive video and camera tripods will make you your money back pretty quick. I would venture to say that for the vast majority of shooters out there that this is not the case. And it’s a lot easier to justify that equipment in a...

    FNX 45 Tactical Reflex Site

    I have the FNP-45T, the first iteration of that pistol. I have a Docter on it but I don’t think it’s made anymore.

    New AB phone app on the way?

    Can you make sure the reticles are all in black and white? Some now are in red and you can’t see the position markers because of that.

    Calypso ultrasonic wind meter

    I guess what I was mostly meaning to convey is the placement of the sensor on the rifle would likely not be optimal for getting you an accurate baseline to work with due to the factors I stated. You’re likely going to end up reading dirty wind most of the time.

    Calypso ultrasonic wind meter

    I have considered getting one of these to mount high up on my spotting scope setup. The more I think about it however the more I think it might just be a waste of money. Not that it wouldn’t be accurate so much as that you really need to be reading the wind throughout the path of the bullets...

    Spotters Spotting Scope Setups - Show Em!

    Right. That would be a good addition. And yes, I only really got a spotting scope with a reticle for two reasons. One is that I’m always taking new shooters out or helping coach someone and in that instance it’s beneficial to be able to give corrections. Also I have been trying to get back to...

    Spotters Spotting Scope Setups - Show Em!

    I don’t mind it not having numbers so much with that design of reticle. I do wish it was maybe offset instead of centered, and wish it had 1/10 mil hashes at the edges rather than 2/10 but honestly I don’t range much with a reticle anymore anyway, and 2/10’s isn’t bad to work with by any means...

    Peanut butter and....

    The squeeze bottle sounds like a good idea actually! Lol

    Peanut butter and....

    I just mix peanut butter and honey together in a bowl and tear up some bread, throw it in and mix it all up and eat it like that.
