New guy from Virginia here. Just getting started with long range shooting. Am I doing this right? The scope should be 6x the cost of your rifle right?
All jokes aside, I'm just getting started into long range shooting and I'm still waiting on my Christensen Arms MPR in 6.5CM. In the mean time, I already had the scope and wanted to learn the reticle so I slapped it on my Marlin Model 60 .22 even though it's ridiculously overkill. I had to use a dovetail to picatinny adapter which made the scope sit stupid high. I have to crane my neck a good bit, but it works.
I'm an avid kayak fisher, so much so that I uprooted my life and moved 9+hours away to take a job as a design engineer at YakAttack (maker of the best kayak accessories). Kayak fishing takes up most of my free time, but I needed a hobby that could lure me away from the dangerously cold waters in the winter. Long range shooting seemed like a good fit so I'm diving in.
