OK I picked up a cheeeezzzy Barska 3-9X40mm and mounted it high on the carry handle with a see through mount. I’m sure glad I have Sierra Infinity software to do the trajectory curve. I bore sighed it with the laser at home, it took 9 shoots to set it in at 25yards. Checked it at 50 yards with 3 shots and went to 100 with just 2 clicks. The trajectory the software came up with was about perfect.
I must confess I am a hold over kind of guy. I know if it is zeroed for 100 or 200 and hold over from there. In this case it was zeroed at 100 (it’s an AR??) . I was done shooting for the day. I packed up and moved over to the high power range for a quick test before leaving. 6 rounds, 2 at the 100 hit + hit.. I forced myself to turn the range knob to the 200 setting, 2 shots, bang bang and it was ding ding , could this be?? It was a stretch but I turned it to 300 ,,, Bang,,,, ding,,, Bang ,,,, DING . On this cheezzzy scope the range compensator worked !!!!! AND the AR with a 16 inch barrel shot 300 yards? And hit an 8 inch target ? This must have been just luck ,,,, or was it ?
Am I talking to myself,,,, Hello ! Hello ....
