Thread: Long Range Shooting and TBR

Really depends what you consider "long range".

At 1000m EVERYTHING starts making a pretty big difference.

Even a 100mm plate @ 300m if placed at a severe enough angle can easily trip up most punters. Very common to see guys miss 3 MOA or larger plates when you present them with a 25 or 30 degree angle.

BDC reticles are great for hunting style comps. For anything medium range (750m) or long (1000m plus) you are much better off with dialing, or a FFP reticle. Not just for initial hits, but also to make accurate corrections for subsequent shots.

A simple rule of thumb is that the width of your fist (across the knuckles), held at arms length, is roughly 10 degrees. It works surprisingly well.
