General Forum / Re: Sighting In Red Dot

Last post by TMeering - Today at 04:19:03 PM

That's just not how Red Dots work.

You definitely toyed with the gun (Like cleaned it when the dot is on the stock) or made a bad correction on the dot.

gun was brand new with a fast fire 3...i don't care what gun it is or what sight it is if you hold it differently than the way you shoot it with a sled it will have a different point of impact... not looking to argue. This is my experience. Never understood how someone can ask for peoples experiences with a certain topic and have someone else tell you your wrong as if they've  shot their gun or are that person.

I dont think a red dot such as a Fast Fire 3 cares how the cheek weld is. Some one can straighten me out on that if Im wrong. Ive used a sled for a long time and with good results.
  Today I used my bags instead . Let me say my shoulder is not happy with that decision.

I sight in off sandbags then shoot off my knee sitting in my turkey chair. More often than not I have to do "minor" adjustments. Also, I found out that when I sight in at 16yds with Federal low brass 7/8oz #7.5 shot 1210fps in my 20 gauges my 3" turkey loads hit spot on at 40yds. That's with 21" and 22" barrels.

Do you know why at all? It seems like your not as stable as you were with the sandbag and that could be it? I always thought a lead sled was designed to keep you still and take out any human error when sighting in a shot?

only thing I can think of is I must hold the gun a little different? I shoot at turkeys sitting flat on my butt most often off my knee not off the bench with sandbags. however, if I do make any adjustments it is always very minimal. been working for me so far so I'm gonna keep doing it the way that has always worked.

20 Gauge Turkey Gun Pattern Pictures / Stoger M3020 Turkey

Last post by strum - Today at 04:01:13 PM

  I did some testing today. The first photo is with the Indian Creek .555 from last season.  The next is the Sumtoy .562 front and back view.  This was Federal #9 tss.
  I know im a little high on the Sumtoy shot. Im more interested in the pattern.  I didn't try 40 yds.
  Very happy with either but for me the .562 wins.
  On another note, that Stoger will rock your shoulder. it may be a 20ga but it hits like a 12ga.
