Tired of this local BS...

Yes, still using the same place. Whatever you decide on, I am can accommodate. I do have a nice 300 WM, a Jap made Weathery I bought it because the AI Arctic Warfare 300 WM was too heavy to lug around, but the sporter kicks too much that after sighting the scope I never shot it again.

F Class targets have a 1/2 MOA X ring. I've seen very few 200s shot (1 MOA 10 ring), but so far I haven't seen any 200-20Xs especially not with any ARs. Matter of a fact, I'm not aware of any simple 200s with an AR.

So, in fact, it IS that hard.


Yep.

Most people over estimate the steadiness of a bipod.


You didn't use logic or reason to get into this opinion, I cannot use logic or reason to get you out of it.

You cannot over estimate the unimportance of nearly everything. John Maxwell

Seems like there was a thread around here not long ago that showed that to be quite difficult for almost everybody that participated. Maybe it's time for a bump.

Bipods are a bit tricky, unless you use F class with slick feet more or less.... especially to get .5 moa repeatable 10 shot groups....
