I think you should use the G1 for flat based bullets and the G5 model for vld's. Here is a site a quick google search brought up.

I was wondering about that, I was playing with a 7mag and it looked like it might work. Now I know I guess.
I think I am going to go with something a little cheaper too shoot probably a 243 or 260 or possibly a short mag of some sort.

How is it too load and unload with the short action. I have one sitting on my work bench waiting for me to get around too ordering a barrel and stock for it.

Thanks for the info guys, I think I am going to go with the B and C stock. I got a p.m from cowboy saying that I could make it work with some mod's. It sounds like I will have to fill one hole and re drill one plus fill the magazine well which I think I am capable of.
I will get some pics up...

I don't know if...
Thanks for the input guys, I had other plans today but I got confused with all the math so went shooting this afternoon and put some theory to the test. I think me and Eaglet agree with using dialing in more moa on of the hash marks. Though I think if you convert all the hash marks to inches...
Everything is in inches but. But I don't think I can just add so many inches to whatever dot to get a father range can I. So many inches drop at 400 is going to be different at 450 right? That was my logic for doing it this way.

Hello, this is my first post here. Though I have been reading old threads here for awhile, and have learned allot in the process.
Anyway I am getting into this long range shooting a bit, mostly with varmints. For the time being I am only shooting a .223, mostly I am just trying to learn the...
