At The Shooting Range

August 1, 2008

vx3_4_5-14x40-resized.jpgAfter mounting a scope to your favorite rifle the next most important step before heading out on the long awaited hunting trip is to spend some time at the shooting range and get accustomed to how you shoot with your new scope.

Purchase some inexpensive ammunition for practice shooting and then some high-quality cartridges when you are ready for some serious target work. Once you are comfortable with the accuracy from the shooting bench it is time to take the next step in your practice shooting.

Many guys are crack shots at a shooting bench then miss their target when in the field. You need to practice at the shooting range the same way you would hunt. Practice shooting from a sitting position and also from a standing position just as you might do when you spot that critter you are after.

Choosing a quality dependable scope is the first important step and my favorite is Leupold for quality and affordability. But after you have chosen the scope that is right for you, spend some time shooting at the range so this year’s hunt will be the best one yet.
