Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters MPBR....270W/130gr.

A proper turret has the ability to set the turret back to zero, it is not confusing or difficult in any manner

I would never use tactical turrets on a hunting rifle. Its just me. I like to keep things simple and compact. Turrets are something to bump and bang, add weight and fight getting into a backpack scabbard. Now, in a dog town, fine, have fun.
Again, its what we have confidence in, we usually defend.

That you don't fathom it surprises me none and that it is difficult for you provides much humor.

Yep, that is just how I do it. Stick with your [bleep] loving posts, at least you can speak to it.

So simple a caveman can do it........grin

Guessing if my 5'11" 200 pound frame with a 3 1/2' foot rifle don't slow [bleep] down, a 1" turret ain't gonna stop me....grin

Thinking both have rode a bit in a backpack

Yes, it probably took all of 1.2 seconds to put in 22 clicks..

Don't forgot the time it takes to chamber a round. I'm amazed you've ever killed anything.......

How big of a klutz are you?? Hell I'm 59 and it aint a problem except in your mind

Those turrets on that scope are pack snaggin POS....laffin!

There's nothing like putting that crosshair on the sweet spot!!

Scenar, I notice you always use meters instead of yards, is that just a personal pref. or is there an advantage?

Thanks

Another one thats on my wall instead of still running around in the bush....Taken with one shot at 470 meters as he was giving me the middle finger, saying in buck language, adios amigo!

I'd rather come home with the buck than another story about the one that got away...

Stunt shooter............grin

Damn, that's a nice mulie.

Nice dink.

Personal preference for me....mils are what I started with. Nothing wrong with moa either.

I've been hunting with this system for about six years and I've never had a POI change on one of these scopes...ever. I've moved those scope turrets thousands of times and they have never changed.

IMO its all about getting to know your equipment. Put your time in. It's like scouting, the more you put into it the more rewards you will reap from it.

What glass are you running there.

Thats a lightweight .308 with a straight 10X S&B PMII.

Aint going to beat a S&B

There's no need to count clicks. Turrets are incrementally numbered and include intermediate index lines. Just dial moa, or mils. Dialing back to zero is pretty foolproof unless going more than a full revolution. Some turrets have a mechanical zero-stop as well. The custom CDS, and Kenton turret caps are marked in range (per your specific load/atmo), moa, or both.

Leupold M1 turrets,


Leupold standard target turrets,


Repeatability is a non-issue with anything resembling a quality scope.

I like to zero at 100, but if moving into open country it's easy enough to apply 200 yard dope (or whatever suits ya), and carry on.

several years ago there was an article on this . can't remember what magazine but this it what it it said this for 270 130 gr bullet. sight it in at 3 1/4 " at 100 yards you will be on at 325 yards. hope that helps
