    That's a completely different subject .The topic I'm commenting on is shooting to test click values and that is it. A topic you raised.

    Your method introduces way to much "noise" to ever be able to get any valuable info at all. Trust me when I say you are not that good a shot. No one in the world is.

    If you want to test a scope for click values you need to remove the scope from the rifle, clamp it in a way that it will not be able to move at all, ideally in a vise mounted on a concrete bench for example.

    Then place a measured chart at exactly the correct distance (100mtr for mil turrets etc) and wind away observing your ret against the chart.

    Your method is so flawed its a joke.

    But again, whatever makes you happy.
    Whoah Harsh! You're both raising legit issues I reckon. Scopes can wear out / shift / break etc and If you've never tested your glass (even if its just optically) then it may not occur to you to check it. To me, you cant beat measuring fall of shot on a good day, recording everything you can think of. Then, just fudge the elev adj in your software till they marry up 'cause its far easier than playing with bc and mv. That's an endless exercise of 'robbing peter to pay paul'.
