[QUOTE="mooretitan, post: 971676, member: 79147"] Now that I am starting to try and get out a little bit I had a question on targets for groups on paper. Was sighting in at 300 yards which is officially the longest I have papered before. I know it's not long but got to start somewhere. I have a couple long range scopes and it was pretty easy to see my 2inch orange circle but when I switched to a couple vx 1 3*9's I had trouble really feeling that I could see the target well. It seemed that my crosshairs covered the target to much. I shot a 3 shot group measuring 1.56inch. Shot another one about an hour later and another 1.5 group but this group was the same height but about and inch to the left of the other group. The groups were the exactly the same shape just centered about and in h apart. I think the target had something to do with it. Anyways for 300, 400, 500 what size aiming area are you using with typical 3*9 scopes Thanks [/QUOTE]
