Peskyfoxs Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Just had a measure and the back bedroom is 5 meters / 16.4ft high .. What angle do you aim for from a high seat ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mereside Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 most highseats i build are 3.2 mtrs but have built them up to 4mtrs so thats got to help you as you are shooting from a greater height Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixhills 69 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 the closer you can shoot to from the high seat the better you should be ok at around 50 to 80 yrds i would have to work it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bedwards1966 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I don't think you can ever have a clear answer, as it's a combination of the lay of the land and therefore how far it's safe to shoot while the angles are safe. The higher the seat, the further you should be able to shoot safely. It might also be affected by the type of land, i.e hard/stony land will cause ricochet, which might greatly change the safe angles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keg Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 I have had no problem with W Yorks, they opened my ticket on .22 & .17hmr after a year and passed 2 out of the 4 permissions for my centrefire. One permission has roads on 3 sides and at its widest is only 350 metres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
