+1 Wishing you only good!!! gun)

I hear ya bman...I agree with everything you said. :D Last year I invested in an old, clean Marlin heavy barrel bolt-action 22LR with a custom wood stock and the feel/fit and weight that would be similar to our hunting rifles; it was a deal I couldn't refuse. My son and I use that to PRACTICE...

I appreciate you taking the time to share this...I'm a strong believer in everything you've said! My son and I spend a lot of time doing this over the past several years and it has helped us immeasurably! I will do as you say...gun)

Tank, I appreciate the info...Right on!

Great advice WildRose!!! I will go into this game knowing I need to work on my technique and spend a lot of time sending lead downrange to perfect it!!! Many thanks! gun)

I'm glad I asked the question here... because it satisfies my curiosity from several things I've heard on other forums contradicting this occurrence. I appreciate the replies as I'm learning a few new things that I've never had the need to look into before. I'll go purchase some bullets and...

Sure, but I'm curious if folks here have run across this issue on occasion more often than not...Would they try another weight first or powder?...As every rifle is a different beast at times...LOL

I've heard it said that a 100yd MOA load does not ALWAYS print MOA @ LR, i.e., @ 600/800/1000 yds... How many folk here find that to be true and how difficult was it for you to find a load that would print MOA at longer distances? Did you change the brand bullet first or weight or...

Thanks Matt:D

Thanks everyone I appreciate the advice! Personally I'm getting to like the idea about what WildRose is saying in being able to use the Mi-Dot as a grid...I'm finding that quite appealing at the present time...I'll read up on that stuff more to try to get a basic layman's understanding...:)...

GREAT...that's what I wanted to know!!! gun)

That makes sense...thank you! :)

Congratulations!!! Yes, I would be a proud dad too...go on you both!!!

308W 23.6" 1/12" twist I've been giving more thought on this as I get ready to buy some bullets and wondered.... Realistically, my shot opportunity on deer will amount to this roughly... < 200yds......... 60% 200-300 yds.....20% 300-400 yds.....10% 400-500 yds..... 7% 500-600 yds...

You have enlightened me a great deal here and I thank you for taking the time to do it!!! I especially found it interesting about using PBR instead for anything <400 yds... I need to take the time to learn this stuffs before I decide which system I will use...hope more folks will chime in and...
