[QUOTE="ricka0, post: 66172, member: 3086"] Good info! I agree, 100 yards is better. [b][ QUOTE ] If you stand up an 8' sheet of plywood "plumb", at 100 yards, then get your rifle locked down solid at the bench, ..and inconsistancies due to wind at 400 yards... [/ QUOTE ] [/b] Any wind at all and a 4’x8’ sheet of plywood won’t be plumb. At most I’d rip a 6” wide strip to put on the 4x4, but why not use just a 4x4” ( 3 ½ “x 3 ½” ) – you should be able to hit 3 ½”. [b] [ QUOTE ] Any error that exists in turret calibration could leave you ****in in the wind if you don't know how much error is involved. [/ QUOTE ] [/b] Yup, my point exactly. [ QUOTE ] [b] If your rifle groups real well, getting shots to read over a chrono at 1000 yards isn't really too difficult (if you're carful) [/ QUOTE ] [/b] You’re talking an exceptionally low extreme spread, no wind. I think I’ll work on my ballistics pendulum (using a video camera to get vertical). Probably won’t work, but it’s text book hi-skoul physics [/QUOTE]
