zini 1,939 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Well done Farmer The proofs in the pudding as they say, but in your case the bag of woodies Just goes to show that a little practice and a little help from friends goes a long way to achieving a aim. Keep up the good posts pal, and nice shooting. Si Quote Link to post
farmerkev09 105 Posted February 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 si your vids were a BIG BIG help and your advice was top notch thanks all Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 Your quiet welcome Farmer That’s what the regs on here are for mate. To help others out, while learning something their self in the process. I learn something every day on here from other shooters and regulars. My advice pal is listen, analyse and try it out for yourself. If it works and it’s a good idea use it in your shooting arsenal, if it didn’t work for you forget about it pal and ask someone else.

farmerkev09 105 Posted February 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 am taking it all in then when i get the hang of it start doing some of them hold over shots. them that you are so good at thanks Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 What calibre is your rifle Farmer? If its a .177 then you will pick it up very quickly as there isnt that much hold over or under to worry about pal. I watched Gary calibrate his mil dots in my indoor range 2 nights ago and from a 30 metre (32.8 yard) zero he could hit a drawing pin at 20 metres with 1 mil dot hold under and a 40 metre drawing pin with 1 mil dot hold over. Taking that a stage further to kill zone size and not a small drawing pin, he could probably shoot a rabbit on the cross hairs from 20 metres out to 40 metres and get a kill. He doesnt though and uses precise shots at each range. Quite a handy calibre the .177 Si Quote Link to post
farmerkev09 105 Posted February 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 i got a .22 s400 multi shot and i think al give it time befor i try all the hard over/under there is a shooting range near me am going to see how much it is to join Quote Link to post
zini 1,939 Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 (edited) Thats the best way to learn pal in a range. Si Edited February 14, 2010 by zini Quote Link to post
