donky7 Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 ok, by the sound of your posting, you are a novice, so you should only be shooting at targets at this stage,(NOT LIVE QUARRY) Once you have shot the **** off, of at least 200 targets you should now be knowing how your rifle fires and feels. now should be the learning curve of zero'ing... pace out 30 yrds, with a good backstop, fire another 200 shots and adjust as required. once you can group within 50p piece, then your ready to hunt. i'd advise to go out stalking your quarry without your gun first, to see how close you can get..... (all about field craft now...) DONT FORGET...........you are aiming for a clean kill. i;m sure others will fine tune, but theres the basics.

BSA Shaun Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 As has been said. Also your steadiest position will be prone, and get a bipod if you can. By the way 200 shots with an ultra, you'll be there all day recharging it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piebob Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Hmm.. or instead of shooting 200 shots just to get the feel of the rifle, then another 200 to zero - you could combine the two activities and shoot 200 shots to get the feel and zero at the same time.

donky7 Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 200 shots were a figure of speech................. 200 shots = practice/practice............ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnybasher07 Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 the best time is 6 in the morning or 7/8 at night just when its getting dark or light and a logun bipod or harris thats the best method for me and about 40yds but 25 for novices like yourself good luch and head shots only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
