Northern Virginia Roll Call

True for practice but i prefer 50 meter zero.

 

100 yd zero is the only zero!

 

I’ll still be in Charlottesville but in the northern part of the county near Greene. Man I have got to fire a gun since deer season last year.

 

Me too .......bullets and machetes!

 

Yeah i will Have to check wegmans and total wine up here!

 

For actual application I prefer 50M zero. I don't like doing math while looking through a.scope.

 

I totally agree.

I really enjoying going out and firing off some rounds and relaxing... I picked up this .308, but wasnt happy w/ the stock... so this was my little project today...

from this camo stock:



to a "desert snake scale" aka "laundry bag paint job" (my military bretheren know all about this)

I agree. Especially out here on the East Coast... Most shots you'll take when hunting will be 50-100M (which is w/in 2") so it'll still be a kill shot either way

Now hunting back in CO, I moved it up to a 100M zero since it's a lot more open out there and the possibility of longer shots is increased

 

100m zero FTW. Unless you have a collimator handy. In the Corps we also use the field expedient 25m or 36yd BZO, but it isn’t as accurate.

 

Loving that new paint job!

 

This is my all game hunting rifle 7mm-08 zeroed at 100 trust myself with it to 500

 

If anyone wants to learn to shoot distance let me know! I have a good buddy who was a scout sniper in the marines and doesn’t some crazy long range shooting out to 2500 yds on the regular. He teaches classes when he can for like $75!

 

Collimators always sucked for us lol

 

I’d love to learn

 

I’ve only used one once before, but I’ve heard Gunners swear by them. Hell, I’ve only used an RCO a couple of times for table 3. My last real qual on the KD range was 2002 with iron sights, and that is what I currently run on my personal Colt HBAR.

 

Are you willing to drive to Binghamton New York for a class?

 

Salt

 

It's only 5 hours. Not that bad

 

Yeah I do it every couple months. That guy got me shooting 1100 yards with my long range AR

 

I actually went to school at Binghamton. Might be fun to take a road trip.

 

Aren’t ARs “unsafe” in NY?
