    MOA and Milrad Turret Calculations

    Hummm…I find it easier to show and teach a shooter how to use a basic ballistic solver, like Shooter, as it can account for environmentals, provide an initial wind call and provide a shooting solution with relative ease

    Vortex Razor HD Gen III 6-36x56

    Not saying you don’t have a legitimate issue, but many times problems that are posted on the forum are due a lack of understanding of the various elements involved in the scope/shooter relationship. Please post the findings from Vortex.

    Vortex Razor HD Gen III 6-36x56

    Everyone’s eyes are different. Every scope is different. Adjusting the diopter to your eye can change how the parallax will adjust in relation to the scale on the knob. Once the diopter is adjusted and the reticle in perfect focus, adjustment should not be necessary; I’ve never made any...

    V4 auto throw update

    Just loaded 81.0 grains of H1000 for a .300 Norma using the new app. Average time for the drops was 10 seconds with 3 overages out of 30 rounds; 1 drop was 7 seconds and another at 12 seconds. I started the time when I placed the pan on the scale so included in the drop times is the time it took...

    Question of the Day - WHY Zero at 100yards

    And we have a winner!!! My primary zero is at 100 but by dialing the maximum cant setting on the Era-Tac, it creates a secondary zero at 1500 yards allowing me to dial to 2700 yards which is all the elevation my scope can give me…anything farther is TARAC time

    Question of the Day - WHY Zero at 100yards

    I get where Mike’s coming from…hell, if I’m going LONG, say out to 2700 yards, I zero at 1500 yards so I can dial my elevations without using hold-overs.

    Differences in posted BC's ?

    BC’s change with form factor; even though the bullets are of the same weight, they are NOT the same shape. This changes how drag can affect their flight

    2 barrel 2 poi question

    Basically yes. In your gun profile for the 6.5, you would put 0.000 for your ZH (Zero Height). Make another gun profile for your .308 and enter the actual measured distance it is low in the negative form. POI below your POA are negative, impacts above your POA are positive If you have a windage...

    2 barrel 2 poi question

    Zero for the high caliber. For the low caliber, after zeroing the high caliber, shoot a group using the same point of aim and measure the EXACT distance it is low and use that number, as a negative, as your “zero height” in your ballistic program for the ammunition. Your ballistic program will...

    Era-Tac adjustable mount

    I tested one of mine on a tall target and it was “dead- nuts” on for every adjustment interval AND was repeatable.

    best place to buy steel targets

    My go-to vendor for targets is JC Steel. I’ve purchased dozens of targets and accessories from “Hide” member Jake Vibbert over several years; he offers excellent steel, fast shipping at affordable pricing and outstanding customer service.

    300wm as my first bolt action gun?

    Personally, I’d try to obtain a LONG ACTION Bighorn Origin or TL-3. The advantage of the Bighorn is the ability to change bolt-heads and swap barrels using your existing stock and scope. They were also one of the first actions made to such precise machining that pre-fit barrels could be ordered...

    Does 6.5x47 or 6x47 still have a place?

    I have both a 6 and a couple 6.5 x 47’s and all of them were very easy to build loads for. One advantage of the 6.5x47 is the number of different FBs available while most CMs are chambered to SAAMI specs. For me, having choices in freebore allows me to use different bullets while having the...

    Vortex Razor HD Gen III 6-36x56

    A friend of mine just got his Gen 3 that he ordered 8 months ago and "out of the box" the turrets are as good as the Gen2. His experience is identical to mine on a scope which came in November 11th.

    Is anybody using a T-Track system to slide their press or presses around?

    “T” track is routinely used by woodworkers when making tables and jigs. Many source the track and hardware through ROCKLER Woodworking stores

    Vortex Razor HD Gen III 6-36x56

    Ordered a Gen 3 several months ago and it came this afternoon. The turrets are every bit as good in locking and tactile feel when dialing as the Gen 2s I have. Parallax is a little stiffer but the magnification ring is considerably easier/smoother than my other Razors. Hopefully they’ve got...
