I was at the range earlier today sighing in a sensible rifle(Howa 1500 308 win) with a sensible optic(3.5-10X40). Several benches down there was a very loud group of bro type guys also doing some shooting in this wonderful August weather. Out of the corner of my eye I noticed that most of the rifles they were shooting had massive Hubble telescope optics on them, not the sort of scope one would want to lug on their back for any length of time. I snickered a little to myself and went about my business, a few moments later one of the frat gents asked me if they could use my spotting scope. I obliged and let him set up on the bench next to me with my Spotter, I took a look through the scope when he was finished up and was shocked. Those guys weren't hitting their targets with any sort of precision, it was tough to call any of their shooting a group but I would guess the best they were pulling off was a 6 inch 3 shot group on a 100 yard target.
This got me wondering if they were counting on their ridiculous scopes to offset poor marksmanship in the same way one can hope a lifted truck will make up for the fact they do not know how to drive off of the paved road?
Are you sure that it isn't tactically ignorant?"Bro, like you got that MOA right?"
"Dude you know it, I'm like totally MOA?"
"Awesome bro, how many MOA is that scope?"
"Yo, it's like 1/4" miles of accuracy MOA bro! That's like 600 yards man."
"No way brah, that's like, like a freaking mile brah!"
Got to love tactical toms. They are the most tactical of them all.
It will, but they never said how many shots it will take...6" group at 100? I've heard SO MANY guys say "that will kill a deer".
Crap, now I have to be self concious when I drive my lifted big block 4x4 pickup to shoot my .50 bmg with a big bubblegum scope on it. Will the shame never end?
Brah, you like, like, don't even know nuttin about tactical tactics, brah!Are you sure that it isn't tactically ignorant?
Brah... Come on. brah. I watched like half a video about guns on YouTube brah! I know ALL about the tactical tactics brah!Brah, you like, like, don't even know nuttin about tactical tactics, brah!
Yep, pretty much sums up what I think of this thread and all of the judgmental comments, but once again, whatever, carry on.
I disagree with your assertion; whether it be mushrooms or light, when you collect something from a large area and place them in a small basket (or form a large lens to a small one) you are "gathering"Scopes do not "gather" light,
The physical objective size of a scope has nothing to do with magnification. Only light gathering abilities.
