    Shooting-Related, Autobiographical Snippets

    Years ago I was working with the former VA Game Commission collecting deer for disease surveys. We were taking turns shooting them at night from the back (top of cab) of a pickup. In the cab was the driver, me on the passenger side with a Q-Beam, and the shooter above us shooting from the roof...

    Cleaning a scope lens?

    Always gently wipe from the center to the outside of the lens. A lot of gunk is located on the outside edge of the lens. No sense in rubbing it out to the center of the lens. An old professional photographer told me that.

    Scoring at LR

    In BR some of the regional matches shoot at 600 yards. I've never attended a BR match but in F class they have pits and scorers. How does a shooter in BR determine hits? On a standard 600 yard BR white and blue target it is nearly impossible for me to see hits with my NF Comp. Even with a...

    Well

    I've shot a little PRS with the guys but just can't get into it. I like shooting prone and shooting for score. They shoot for hits and time. To each their own I guess. One thing I see is that you don't need a lot of space or formal target scoring setups for PRS. A few barrels, some scrap lumber...

    Well

    I've been trying to get a small group together for a year now with very limited success. Most of my rifle shooting friends are "young" and into PRS, which seems to be the fastest growing sport for the younger crowd, at least when it comes to rifle shooting. I have a place to shoot out to 900...

    Fine, black reticle on a black target

    White paper target with black or blue rings would make more sense, like many BR targets. I have a Meopta scope that has quite a small illuminated dot but not sure just how small at longer distances.

    Rimfire F-Class Question

    You may try F-Class.info. It's a new forum that caters to F Class shooters but it's mostly just a match calendar. They have a Discussion section but not much going on there. If you can't get your questions answered here I'm not sure where you can go. I don't shoot rimfire except at squirrels. :)

    What is the appeal of F Class?

    Our little "group" shoots F Class on my private range mostly at 300 yards using the reduced 600 yard targets. We do on occasion shoot out to 900 with the big shoot-nc targets. As someone mentioned earlier you can basically use whatever rife you have (one guy shoots his .270 deer rifle!). We...

    Sierra 180's in 284; load data?

    I'm running low on 180 Bergers so I picked up 500 180 grain SMK's in .284. Does anyone have any load data they would share? I have both H4350 and 4831. I assume somewhere in the 52-55 grain range? Thanks in advance, Tom
