Comments on: THE OPERATIONAL TARGET by B.O.S.S Accuracy http://longrangeshooter.com/2009/08/the-operational-target-by-boss-accuracy/ A Long Range and Distance Shooting Website Wed, 25 Jan 2012 03:43:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Sean Pomerinke http://longrangeshooter.com/2009/08/the-operational-target-by-boss-accuracy/comment-page-1/#comment-400 Sean Pomerinke Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:22:47 +0000 http://longrangeshooter.com/?p=529#comment-400 Ok sorry it took me so long it has been very busy here. The Jewell trigger is good and the stock as long as the stock has a aluminum bedding in it. The barrel should be chosen for the type of bullet you want to shoot. Like a 210gr VLD should have a faster twist than 1-11 but a 208gr A-Max needs to be at least 1-9. I would suggest a fluted bull barrel even though it is not necessary it will decrease shot movement from the barrel heating up and from vibration. With the bullet you should look to find the best combo between a hunting bullet and a target bullet. So be looking for the highest BC hunting bullet that you can find BUT the BC that is given to a bullet is derived from the G1 model. The reason manufactures do that is because the G1 will give a higher BC for the bullet that is produced. Even though a bullet may not match the G1 model. For example, a boat tailed bullet with a G1 base BC of .690 may actually have a G7 based BC of only .344, sense the G7 drag model much more accurately describes its performance. As far as scope the best for the price would be a Leupold Mark 4 and you can get one at Cabelas right now for about 800 bucks http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/links/link.jsp;jsessionid=SAPIMVTF1E0XHLAQBBISCN3MCAEFEIWE?id=0048299710499a&type=product&cmCat=froogle&cm_ven=data_feed&cm_cat=froogle&cm_pla=1710101&cm_ite=0048299710499a&_requestid=110368 If you have any more questions please let me know Ok sorry it took me so long it has been very busy here.

Our scope budget will probably be in the $700.00 to $800.00 dollar range, if that $ covers the need, if not we will have to save up more? Something dependable/solid, Leupold is not out of the question? 30MM tube is a possibility, its probably going on a Remington action, with a Kreiger varmint contour / fluted barrel, 1:10 twist. I'd like to do it right the first time, doing it twice is always more expensive. Appreciate your help. We do some shooting not a lot. Have done fairly well out to 4 hundred yards, want more insurance that we have the tools to get the job done (done right) out to 6 or maybe even 8 hundred yards. (we have plenty of room for improvement) Again your help, information, is very appreciated. Jim Lara Sean Hello!

Scopes for example can range from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand depending on what you want to do.

This is a magazine theme that is free from Dirty Blue Media that I just updated to about 8 or 9 months ago. This site has been up for about 2 years now but I really have got a big increase in traffic until I updated. Now my site has increased 800 percent in the last 8-9 months. The forum is new to, just about 6 or 7 months old but I would like to see more active members. Thanks Dave and yes everybody here are very good people.

Most of us came from another site that had a huge censorship problem and had a gang of good ole boys. Your site is set up much better than ours, the layout is a lot better. I am working to update it to something like you guys have. I'm trying to connect to other sites that dont have a lot of members who are so bored and lonely all they can do is argue or refute each and every post. It seems your site has a bunch of good guys on it. We have a bunch of good guys too. I hope our sites can benefit from each other. Good to be connected with ya'll and look forward to everything.

For the money you cant beat it. I guess some people are having trouble with them but mine and many others that I know that have one have not had any trouble at all. Ah yes asrealasitgets....I stopped by to talk and share with others and did not get a very good welcome. Even my first post this guy bigstick was jumping down my throat. But I guess that guy bigstick has been kicked out of just about every forum on the internet. Hey doesn't have many fans out there but what can you expect. I wasn't going to get anywhere with them so I just left. I stopped by your site and its very nice. How long as it been running? Thank you very much Dave I am using the Millett LRS-1.

The bossaccuracy system is perfect and something I was looking for. What scope were you using? I am checking out bossaccuracy and am going to order a few of those targets. Might even go to the local sign shop and have them blow it up 5 times to use at 500 yards so you can also get a feel for groups. I read your article on shooting past the distance that you expect to shoot game at and do believe that is true. I shoot 500 yards so much it is the new 100 yards and when walking it out its like 200, 300, 400 and 500 after that not 600, 700, 800 and 900. I got here from asrealasitgets and witnessed first hand some very harsh and horrible people. Be assured they will be banned immediately on my site if they show up. I have some instructional videos on youtube under PrecisionLRHunter bedding rifle, rcbs chargemaster, and removing a stuck screw from a scope ring. I am currently working on bedding a composite stock so its a bit different. I really enjoyed your article. The bossaccuracy system is perfect and something I was looking for.
