rifle rest / wind flags
« on: May 08, 2003, 06:03:32 AM »
Sounds to me like you're on the right track for the flags. Use sandbags for a rest til you can get a rest like Dillon has in their cataloge. It is pricey though. Over $100 bucks. I just use sand bags so I have more to spend on reloading supplies & guns. :)

What excactly are you goona be doing that you want the adjustable rest??

At gun shows there are sometimes army manuals;get one on rifle shooting, the M-1 Rifle if you can find one. It tells how to read the mirage & what the flags mean. It has some tables for windage also. Tell me a little more about what you are shooting & I may be able to help more.

I sent you an e-mail. Mirage is the heat waves on a rifle range.

This is the book;it is full of info on shooting.
Thereis also one on pistol shooting.
