Useful Youtube Videos on Shooting

"Always do the right thing, just because it is the right thing to do".

Have you seen any videos that offer tips for vision issues?? When shooting 300yds or less I get good clear sharp images of reticle and target. At 400 I start to have minor issues getting the scope dialed to as sharp an image and at 500+ the only thing I can do is start using my reading glasses to tune the parallax and eye relief to reduce aberration. And its still far from where I need to be. I'm currently using the IOR 6-28X56.

I have had Lasik and at first had great vision both near and far. The doc said that in time I would likely need reading glasses. Boy howdy!! I can function without readin glasses but they are startin to make life easier. And I tried them the other day when shootin at 500yds and they did help some but I hope there is something else.

Am I letting my focus wonder to the wrong places? Or am I fighting myself trying too hard to focus?? If I could get a handle on this problem I could lay down some really nice shootin with this latest build. I've noticed the same problem with the Ziess Diavari 6-24X56. Both scopes have side focus and top glass/coatings. I'm certain the problem is me and there has to be some simple solution!!

Right??

Take care of Soldiers, Show em how its done and do it with em, Run to the Fight & and hold your ground! I die my men go home! If you're a NCO and this ain't you. GET OUT! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Thanks Gil you use the icon above that looks like a piece of film.

Easy come easy go

Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.

Some videos on YT are good, some are just plain wrong, I have seen some dangerous suggestions on there

	There is great video series for shooting basics on youtube. Its a seven part series called Bangs Bucks and Bullseyes by Keith Poyser. I wish I knew how to post videos, but its just as easy to look it up.
