[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 105344, member: 1622"] IdahoWoodsbummer, ...without knowing your situation/ relationship with coalition forces.....I would have thought the best place for this data would be co-located military units using the same weapons and ammo [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] have you explored this option?! PS: (as a dumb Brit assuming that these are standard issue US sniper weapons with standard issue ammo) ....surely this data is published in the relevant US military training pamphlets too (most of which seem to be available on-line)? ...it is in the equivalent Brit publications. ..and I wouldn't be too fussy about the data...you're never going to get better than 'in the parish' if you're limited to 25m for all your zeroing and range work! (I hope 'accurate' and 'exact' to 1000m are not actually too 'critical'!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) .....talking of 'in the parish'and relating it to your use of 'accurate, exact and Critical' ...(and, based on my [i]very [/i]limited experience of working 'around' civilian contractors in Iraq)...might be worth pointing out that dependant on your situation in terms of your legal status, the ROE under which you are operating and the requirements of the situation/incident itself, you might want/need to consider the legal ramifications if you 'botch' an engagement (ie kill a friendly or an innocent) using a rifle that has only ever been zeroed at 25m and then set using (what has been kindly described above as) 'SWAP' data.
