I first would like to ask opinions for shooting by making mil dot corrections for distance, against making click adjustments for distance as I have a new scope which is a Nikko Stirling and does not have mil dots on the reticle, it has a christmas tree type and i don't know how far apart they are in relation to mil dots. Makes it a problem when using Chair Gun Pro. My second query is that I have confused myself and need to confirm that if I use a single zero and am shooting at a target further away I click up and if I am shooting at a nearer target than zero range I click down?

Thanks for a very useful insight article. Helped inform me about questions I wanted to ask. Even the gun bag was useful as I am now going to stop storing my rifle in it's bag. Thanks very much I do appreciate your effort for the likes of me. -
Mtc Range Ao For Range Finding

Any help, however technical, would be appreciated but bear in mind I am new and may not be aware of acronyms etc. Thank in advance. Oh and if there is someone or somewhere else I can get this info please let me know. -
Just wanted to say hello having just joined the forum. A little about me. Before Dunblane and the law changes etc, I was heavily into FAC Police pistol, practical pistol, practical shotgun, sports shotgun, pigeon shooting, full bore rifle shooting both pleasure and match(but not to seriously) amongst other things like making my own reloads. I got rid of all my guns, and cut myself off from the shooting community as a way to deal with giving up. In 2000 I emigrated from Essex to Co Durham and have now got the shooting bug again. Did a lot of research and found that one of the best and most
