    What specific scope can you recommend that has all the features you recommend for shots out to 600 yards max using a .300 win mag 150 grain bullet? For example I love the idea of lockable exposed turrets and return to zero stop and adjustable parallax. I also prefer low-end magnification to be 2 if able or 3 if unable 2. High end of 15 or so seems adequate but I’m not knowledgeable enough to really know. This will strictly be for hunting. Very informative video! Thank you

    • @vortexedge4492

      There are a couple options for you, the top of the list is the Razor HD LHT 3-15x42 (Best), then the Viper HD 3-15x44 (Better), and lastly, the Strike Eagle 3-18x44 (Good, but in FFP). All have locking turrets and will easily get you out to 600 and beyond.

    When you set up a 200 yard zero, you don't do it at 200 yd. You do it at 100 and have the point of impact 1.5" high, or whatever it should be specifically for your setup.

    • @vortexedge4492
      @vortexedge4492 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Good rule of thumb, but we would always encourage to verify as it is not always the case between different calibers, bullet dimensions, and bullet weight.

    Well scripted video. Maybe worth a little more info: I ALWAYS appraise wind at mid range. It helped me earn a US Distinguished Rifleman Badge and an American High Power Rifleman in Long-Range Award. Also, as a CMP-USAMU Military Rifle Instructor assisting the USAMU deliver SDM Training, I note that this training as well instructs students to appraise wind at mid range because that’s where the bullet is most exposed to wind. At any rate, after appraising wind velocity and direction to determine wind value the shooter needs to know how much windage adjustment is needed to counter wind. I use the MOA wind constant formula: distance to target in yards divided by 100 times wind value in mph divided by the MOA wind constant for cartridge equals favor in MOA. For example the M855 cartridge shot from an AR-15 has an MOA wind constant of 10 at 300 yards so given a full value 10 mph wind the formula is 300 divided by 100 equals 3 times 10 mph equals 30 divided by MOA wind constant of 10 equals 3 MOA or 9 inches of favor.

  • @JacobTerherst
    @JacobTerherst 13 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I’ve never shot in a 12 o’clock wind but I’ve seen a lot of 1130 and 1230. I would rather shoot in a 15mph from 3 o’clock than a 3mph switching from 1130 to 1230.

    • @charlesludwig9173
      @charlesludwig9173 12 วันที่ผ่านมา

      No doubt. I find it’s the 1-3 mph wind direction changes that most effect my long range Service Rifle scores, since these wind changes are difficult to observe yet will displace a bullet 1 to 3 MOA, making X-Ring hits problematic.

    Is a 5 moa dot to big for a normal range day with 10 to 20 yards?

    • @vortexedge4492
      @vortexedge4492 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Great question, which it mostly comes down to personal preference as some like smaller dots and others, larger. However the 5 MOA dot is not too big for 10 - 20 yards as it only covers 1/4" of the target at 10 yards and only 3/8" at 20 yards.

      Proper trigger pull really shouldn't matter as to what rifle we are using, as these are the rifles we loan to students for our Intro courses here at EDGE. Lower quality rifles should require more of a dialed-in trigger pull to mitigate any influence from being put into the rifle.

    • @charlesludwig9173
      @charlesludwig9173 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I am a US Service Rifle Competitor, US Distinguished Rifleman, and American High Power Rifleman in Long-Range Award Winner. I am also a CMP-USAMU Military Rifle Instructor assisting the USAMU deliver SDM Training. These histories all support SMOOTH trigger control whereby the finger is placed on the trigger wherever it wants to fall naturally from a high firm handshake grip on the pistol grip. And, when smooth trigger control is realized it can be seen via dry firing or from live firing by maintaining consistent sight alignment through subsiding recoil. At any rate, I perceive that instruction given here is good. The bottom-line is trigger pull must not disturb aim and if dry firing suggests that the sight is moving off point of aim, either practice or change in finger to trigger relationship might need some another technique.
