From a rest using a high quality rifle, it is easy to hit a man sized target at 400 yards. That also means having the sights adjusted correctly.

Same goes for an accurate handgun and beer cans at 100 yards.

Past 400 yards and not knowing exact distances etc., I am not accurate at all.

I sailed from San Diego to Panama with the guy that makes the Atlas bipod used in the shoot.

“Thats due to (getting a little technical here) the environmental factors of temperature and barometric pressure.”

Utter and complete nonsense.

Bullets “drop like a rainbow” do to lost velocity, which the above factors have minuscule affect on.

The author doesn’t know what he is talking about.

Somebody needs an editor. That’s some pretty poor English. Decent information, though.

Cataract isn't bad enough to operate, but it does affect target clarity.

So, I keep it inside 300 yds.

A 20” barrel on a .338 Lapua?!

No way they stabilize a 250 grain bullet with a 20”

Fail

“Read and see more of precision shooting.”

This article may be about the subject of precision shooting, but this blog needs a precise writer.
