Lebben,


Do you keep any kind of lights attached to any of your rifles and if so, what kind?

I'm not FROM Oklahoma. I live in Oklahoma currently. I'm originally from the Old Dominion state.

And I agree with Sisco's assessment of fishing lines.

Lights: All my home defense weapons carry lights. I've got the most experience with Surefire and Streamlight, so those are the brands I go with.

L******: You'd really have to ask a l****** couple, OC.

Lesbians: You'd really have to ask a lesbian couple, OC.


Ohhh man I am so sorry, did not have on my glasses there for a while and I thought this was the "AR10Ts Official Ask L****** a Question Thread..."

Lebben,

If you could have world peace or Bill Gate's money, what would your next rifle be?

@Lebben, so here's the question. P.E.T.A. will now be flying its own drones to "Stalk" hunters when they are out in the field. If I use a range finder to determine the distance of said drone in flight, what formula should I use to help calculate and adjust for elevation, and/or slope of bullet travel during flight? I was thinking c2-a2=b2(b2=actual height).
I want to drop it and MOUNT IT on the first shot! :evil:

Every true sportsman should have a mounted drone in their trophy room. Getting a PETA one would be commendable. Below is my trophy, taken over Lake Huron with my recently acquired surplus Bofors 40mm Dual big game cannon. Shot was at 2'000 meters with the traditional lead computing gun sight. The taxidermist went into therapy shortly after finsihing the mount for me.

Find the angle in degrees of the target you're shooting at. Find that angle's cosine. Multiply the cosine by the raw distance of the target. The product is the "actual" range to the target

Example: You have a mountain sheep on a ridgeline. Your laser rangefinder gives you a raw distance of 500 yds. The clinometer device you have on your scope tells you you're shooting at a 30 degree angle and that the cosine of that angle is .87. (These devices are clamp on and are available at places like Brownells and Midway.) Multiplying 500 by .87 gives you a distance of 435 yds.
