I've discovered that the grendel is a unique low velocity , medium BC round (very similar to the .303). I'd be surprised if common ballistic reticles are close enough past 300m. Would need a special...

Thiink about this Danny. The 270 was a cartridge of its day, flat shooting and fairly powerful. Its' forte was from 200 to 300 yd in the days when we didn't have range finders. You've got to...

I bent a piece of reinforcing rod in a C shape and hung the plate from bolts on a piece of old climbing rope. That allows stretch so impact doesn't snap it like chains do. The figure 8 knots give a...

As said: Excellent phone reception on the west because you have line of sight to call towers and can be patchy on the east because some valleys dont have line of sight. Gps on phone doesn't require...

What do you want it for ? For .22 shooting on range or spotlighting possums or day shooting rabbits, you don't need much ruggedness nor resolution but you do need close focus, so a cheap scope can...

400m is difficult and you won't be able to do it reliably with a $500 scope. Try it on gongs and see. To shoot an animal at 500m you would need a scope in the $2000 to $4000 range. It needs accurate...

There have been a number of threads on calipers (I asked myself once). There are always people who advise you to use $20 tools. Surprising how few do the "Buy once Cry once" thing. I'm a hunter...
