Thank you very much. I will try and get out to the range in the morning but the weather does not seem to be in harmony with me so far. I will use this for sighting in my Iron Sights. Thanks.

 

Nice work!!!

 

I'll try this out. Thanks!

 

Thanks Kal!

 

You're freaken awesome. Thank you.

 

very nice. for your next bit of homework, what is the preferred target for sighting in an ELCAN Spectre DR @ 100 meters?

 

Actually, I use the same target to zero an ACOG at 100m. Each box is 1/4 MOA at that range. Arguably, this isn't the best method as the silhouette is quite small, even with 3.5x magnification.

I can scale the silhouette for 100m. It'll take up most of the paper, but appear the same as a full size, E-type silhouette at 300m. The downside is the amount of black ink required to print each target. A better solution might be to use an outline of the silhouette visible at 100m with a black point of aim in the center. The question is how large to make the center POA circle (1 MOA, 2 MOA). Thoughts anyone?

 

WTF? Your point of impact is in his junk. It's not cool to shoot someone in their junk!

 

Thanks posting this!

 

Way Cool!! BIG Thank you for sharing your homework with us! :?

 

I'm looking for ballistics information for M118LR through the 17S. Also M855 ball for the 16S at the same range. I keep coming up with zero inches at 100m using the stock barrels, but my math may be wrong. Can anyone confirm?

 

Any ballistic calculator should give u the info.

but the short answer is , provided u are using the 25/300m zero, you will not
have a zero inch at 100.

 

My apologies, I should've clarified. This is for a 100m zero target. I'm looking for straight ballistics out of the barrel.

I actually used a ballistics calculator to get zero inches. I wanted somebody smarter than I am to check it because both coming out to zero didn't make any sense. I couldn't see where I was making a mistake with my numbers.

 

Good Shiite! Thanks for posting this.

 

If you are using the irons sights as they were meant to be used 100m zero is not what u wanna zero at.

If you zero at 100 with the irons you will have to manually figure out what your elevation Drum coincides with.
It will no longer match the numbers on the drum.

If you are using a scope disregard the above.

 

Here's an initial version of the 100m zero target for review. I have not had a chance to test this yet, and would appreciate any feedback. This is intended for use with scopes rather than iron sights. I'll try this out Saturday and see how well it works.

Thanks Kal, I ordered A 17S and expect it to arrive within the next couple of weeks. I noticed the same thing about the target although it's been just over a year since your post. Just wondering, Have you gotten any feedback from anyone? Your target look great and I plan to try it too.

 

Nice work. The original for comparison.

 

Awesome post!!

 

Very cool and thank you for bumping!

 

Thank you for posting this!!!

 

thanks for sharing this.

 

wow, thanks for the hard work!

 

I've been having so much trouble trying to zero my SCAR, this print is going to help out a lot. Thank you for putting in your own time and effort to make this target readily available for all of us.

 

Very nice - thanks for posting!

 

Thanks, and I guess bump becomes a bump too.

 

Thank you for sharing.
