    The new place that I have set my gongs up at has no reception where I have placed the shooting platform but there is reception at the gate. I have just developed the discipline of downloading when I open the gate. If I was to shoot elsewhere and thought that was going to be an issue I would download while still in coverage.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    The samsung s4 doesn't need reception and it also gets the station pressure which is what you want and not the barometric pressure
    My favorite sentences i like to hear are - I suppose so. and Send It!

    How far out do your binos give an accurate ballistic solution to and they will only give you range after that?

    HDB gives you custom ballistic solution out to 1000-1015 yards, far enough for shooting animals,

    2065 yards max range, still gives you Temp, Baro, angle so you can enter that data into your phone etc for shots 1000-2065 yards
