I know there are a lot of factors that come into a distance shot. But if the target was very small wouldn't atleast some of those factors come into play, such as wind drift, trigger control etc.
If the small target is a decent idea, any idea of how small that would have to be?
thanks. 
after posting this I realized that would be no different then simply shooting tight groups. Please disregard this post unless I missed something further |
FNG:
Shoot a standard velocity .22 rimfire using what ever sight you use on your more powerful rifle on targets that are reduced to 100 yards.
You will find a distinct requirement to dope winds if you stick with a .22 LR and by using the sights you intend to use on your other rifle you will get used to using that particular sight / spotting scope as well as conditioning yourself to see a consistent sight picture and or holds.
