[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 375820, member: 2011"] I said what I said and I'm sticking to it.....:) Target was ~3' above ground. Shooting bench was standard height. Dirt was just dozed to remove a much top soil as possible for safety berms. Lava rock showing in a lot of places. When I attempt to dope mirage I do ok when looking through scope but when talking about it I usually get things exactly back wards. If mirage is to the right then the bull appears to the right so ya hold left to compensate. The other way for when left. When its boiling, no wind, and mirage increasing as the difference between sun intensity/air temp and ground temperature increases (or whatever the process is) the bull dances like a ball on a rubber band with the ball continually appear to change size as if its pulsating to the extent that @ 26X there is no hope of focus. I wonder if its really effective to reduce scope power so that mirage can't be seen? Its still there? Also I pay more attention to mirage than wind. Though they are very closely related. [/QUOTE]
