if you turn the eyepice you can make the crosshairs finer or thicker without distorting image.half a turn on mine for low light.back half a turn for target.its not hard

bdc reticles are FANTASTIC. i have the hst on a weirhauch psp air rifle.the hash marks take me to over a hundred yards and NEVER forget to rezero.bdc on .17 hmr gets over 300yds.bdc on .17 hornet gets over 500 yds.i plot off a drop chart approximately what yardage the dot will be then shoot...

if the hornady brass is crap who else makes brass for the .17 hornady hornet? and who would ship this to australia as getting bits can be hard over here. cheers mike

try the caldwell deadshot fieldpod.i use it from 800yds to .22 range.every gun i own but the shotgun goes on it.light portable,CHEAP,accurate.i sanded smooth the ballhead for smoother panning.added 2 metal gun rests i made of steel,padded and coated in leather then the best thing is a...

i'm now running an 8" twist kreiger and am after loads for 75 and 80 gn bergervld .all my books only show up to 70gns. many thanks mike

absolutely. even bull barrels get hot in heavier calibre's shooting 5 shots straight.this accelerates barrel wear and fouling.i pull the bolt back immediately after the shot,eject brass,blow into chamber to remove hot air/smoke,inspect brass for pressure signs,make notes in book,look how group...

i'm rebarreling my rem varminter with a kreiger palma 1 in 8" twist.which of the three would be best choice and what loads of what powder? i'm trying to cut down on millions of variations and just get it dialled. shooting to hopefully 1000yds. best powder and length of barrel to cut...

i can't find loads in 22/250 for berger 80gn vld. is retumbo any good as its devastating in my 7mm rm but that would be too easy wouldn't it.next choice is bm8208 as its also premium and temp stable or bm2 i used previously.kreiger palma 1 in 8"twist .224 is the new barrel.how long should it be...

i'm looking to upgrade my caldwell deadshot field pod to something more stable. i have extensively modified it to give smooth pan and tilt plus heated and bent the rifle supports to tightly cradle the stock and although its very portable the light frame has movement and limits long range to...

hi guys, i need a helping hand. i'm after berger vld .284(7mm) 168gns. can't buy in australia but got 168 hunters. as usual the gun likes the vlds which i can't get.i'm after 300 but the sites recommended to me won't ship to oz. does anyone know of an export site that has stock or can i send...

hi guys, i lvd the g7 ball calc on this site but i shoot competition archery (in metres) and therefore my hunting bows are set up in metres. i use the one rangie for bows and guns and never know which outfit i'm gonna grab depending on what and where they are. problem is all drop charts are in...

many thanks but i've changed tack as i can get 1500 classic hunters over here and very suprised to see the negligible drift/drop difference to the vld and hopefully easier tuning, as my chamber is long and only half the bearing surface in the case which worries me for hunting. hopefully i'm not...

many thanks bob but they won't ship down to australia.don't understand why so many companies are like that,its not even gunpowder its just projjys. the search goes on . cheers mike
