The Zero Check Thread

[Tentman]

Nope. We shot it last week, my effort was judged closest but I didn't take the money. My group was well under moa but was one click left (10mm) and that put 3 holes over the edge of the black.

I like your thinking on this but I fear there are still too many uncontrolled variables that will make a reliable and repeatable result difficult. For example, environmental factors, wind, temperature (effects air density and powder, therefore velocity) and mirage. That's not to mention human factors, eg a cold day so extra jacket effects position etc etc.

I'd think a mechanical test of the scopes in question would be more reliable. But I doubt the protagonists would accept it anyway, this smacks of some sort of "belief" which as issues like node theory prove, people don't want the scientific explanation.
