@BrentD Thank you for sharing that. I guess I should clarify from my post that a single two shot group will be a poor indicator of performance. I think I will be using your method next time I do any comparisons.
I posted this in a thread about tuners on another site but figured I'd share it here. The Ammo and Reloading section seemed like the best place to put it.
I bought a Kinetic Security Solutions adaptive tuner system around a year ago as I was primarily shooting factory ammo and it seemed like...
Just keep in mind that you need a distance in order to correlate your inches of drop with an angular measurement such as MOA. It's missing from your OP and I'm assuming that the distance in your example is 325yds as that is where your 7.4" is equal to 2 1/4 MOA (9 clicks).
Sounds like you're scope is in Minutes Of Angle with every click being 1/4 MOA. MOA is an angular measurement equal to 1/60th of a degree. Every 100yds that angle covers 1.047 inches so at 1000 yds making a 1 MOA correction should move your reticle 10.47 inches. Since it is so close it's easy...
You made is perfectly clear that you find posting the home address of someone's parent(s) online perfectly acceptable. As long as you can validate it by associating their apperant wealth or lack thereof with the punishment their offspring recieved for a crime.

I don't know if you're still looking for information on the Tangent Theta as I see you just got that 10x42 PM2, but I have one and I like it so far.
My real complaints on it are the turret setting isnt readable when they are "Locked" and the revolution indicator isn't visible or...
I got a set of Leica HD-B 3000 8x42 when they were on sale at eurooptic when the new version came out. They have a fantastic image and range out to 2500 yds pretty consistently. I only wish they were a little smaller, they are the same size as my 15x56 binos and ideally they wouldn't take up...
Everyone knows that anything larger than a rat will shrug off a hail of 9mm bullets.
I'm more curious how you would have handled the bird if you had decided to shoot. A pissed off falcon sounds like a handful.
I have the fulcrum and the Stryker xl.
Started with just the fulcrum and if I could only keep one that is what I would keep. It is a little "strappy" compared to the Stryker, but works well as a daypack.
I got the Stryker because I wanted a little more streamlined setup for dayhunts which is...
I get 0.0022218 for the SD from a 2.7 gram ball with a 40mm diameter.
I'm not sure what the form factor for a sphere is to turn that into a BC, and I'm betting it wouldn't fit a G1, G7 or similar curve.....speaking of useless traits.
I posted my experience in the above linked thread. The factory .30-06 terminal ascent ammo has shot very well for me.
I shot a barbary sheep with it this last March and it perished. I'm going to continue to use it, and will try to find the .280 AI version if/when I finally get a rifle in that...
Thank you for responding. I'll have to take your word for how that went down as I haven't been paying attention that long. Although I would imagine the proponents of I-616 probably view it differently.
It would be nice if landowners, sportsmen, outfitters, and whatever other stakeholders could...
Hyperbole on: I'm almost at the point were I would support mining the edges of landlocked public land and billing the adjacent landowner for replacing any munitions expended destroying whatever tries to cross over from their side.
Ok, trying to be constructive now.
@Eric Albus From my...
Was that in big timber canyon just below the twin lakes? Last summer there was one that had a nest there just off the trail and he/she would do high speed passes inches from your head to run you off.
Is there a repository of information on these types of access points? For having hunted MT for around 20 years I'm embarrassingly uninformed on these issues and would like to be a bit better armed with information when it comes to contacting my reps and getting others involved.
