  1. If you're not reloading I'd go to my local gun shop and see what they have most of In terms of ammo. The usual suspects will be 223, 22-250, 243 and so on. If you are only going to lamping ranges anything more than a cumshot will be sufficient. I'm a big advocate of the .204 but you will get far more offerings in .223 and it will give you a chance to diversify your rifle if you want to go bigger or smaller in terms of grain weight or game. Maby look into 1-8 or a 1-10 twist if you can get it. Gives you the option to stretch the legs if you start to get the notion for longer ranges.
  2. Hi There,

    Are the scope rings still for sale, if so what is the actual height off the rail to the bottom of the scope tube, if so please email me back my email is vince.mitchell12@gmail.com or better still call on 0774 260 6779. I don't use UKV much.

    Is this the best price on the rings I am deffienantly interested.

    Cheers

  3. I use this method to great effect. My current match round was picked up in the very first test (about 10 rounds) and I havn't changed it 700 shots. Apart from to chase the lands. I'm looking for to 1/3 MOA out that gun to 1000 yards
  4. I have mine on my .204 so I'm only going out to 500yrds. Upto that point there is only 1/4 of a click in it at any weather extreme for me. At the start of a day I'll either fire a test shot at a known distance then adjust accordingly for the rest of they day. Option 2: I'll rig up my ballistics app as normal and compare data with my turret and and make a mental note on what to do for the day i.e 10°c warmer .25 of a click less than turret suggests. If I'm missing at that it's usually my fault instead of the 1.25 inches vertical i was out at 500yrds
  5. Stuff in my previous pics was matte vinyl. I left a buggered one in a glass of of water over night and it was still sticky with zero colour run.
  6. I'll look back through my invoices and find the company.
  7. I bought a sample pack from a company and it only cost 97p and you get 3 A4 sheets with adhesive backing.
  8. Here's a couple of screen shots of mine, different scope but might help out. Just realised you can't see my hash marks on the screen shot. But you can see them from that view.
  9. Try zooming RIGHT in. You have to get really close to see the correct division's
  10. Diameter of the turrets X 3.14 then divide that number by how many moa in a revolution (clicks) in my case 80 for the NF and that will give you the exact spacing for your hash marks
  11. I found doing the pie to 3 decimal places worked best. Same goes for your grid spacing. Remember Nf are American so they will be dealing in imperial so if you take a metric measurement and its a wierd number like 32.98 then double check and go with it, don't round it no matter how close it seems to a whole number because if you check the imperial measurement it most likely will be a whole number. My first attempt i missed the 3 decimal ie. 0.008 of a mm and i ended up .16 out over the length of the wrap, enough to throw it out. Best of luck
  12. Draw the box the required size. Select the box (Lines go burgundy) then hatch it the colour you want.
  13. You have to separate the background and ballistics info by setting them on separate layers. You have to make sure the black box is the first layer followed by the writing there after. Best way is draw the sqaure then hatch it with a solid colour. Hatching option is in the menu on the left hand side.
