Personally, unless I had a 50m indoor range, a good selection of batches to try and compare and a solid mounted clamp to hold the rifle or barreled action I would do it from the shoulder. Use all your normal equipment; including the sling; a scope sight and a couple of sandbags or a small rest to su...

Boston Rifle Club, or Holwell at Melton Mowbray are roughly in your area. Stamford is fairly near as well.

A couple of points about lenses and mountings: The internally mounted lens is OK except that it must be disassembled for cleaning and indexing for astigmatism would appear to be a little tricky. The astigmatic correction can vary slightly over time. With glasses you can quite easily rotate the lens ...

You need to be able to clearly see the foresight and any astigmatism should be corrected It really is best that you see an optician who understands the requirements of shooting. Failing that you need an understanding one who will not be worried about you bringing a rifle with you! At the very least ...

Any help in setting a value on this ammo would be much appreciated To be blunt about it, it's worth anything you are offered. However you may have to pay someone to take it away. All the components of the ammunition will deteriorate over time; even in the most benign environment; and this has had 3...

It sounds like time for a bit of drastic action! Remove the trigger unit and and spray or submerge it in degreaser. Alternatively you could put it in an ultrasonic cleanign bath. When thoroughly dry and free of any debris; use a compressed air can if necessary; very lightly lubricate the bearing sur...

First of all I shall endorse what Rob said: Don't also forget to observe the traces at the end. Your approach into the target should be the same for every shot (straight up from 6 O-clock) and your follow through should be in the same direction and steady / small red trace. Look for consistency and ...

There is a plan to write a Scatt guide and I know who the author might be. However, how far this has progressed since I do not know. Producing video is another matter all together, it take a lot of time and expertise to achieve a useable result, i.e. time and money! Apart from that, top Scatt tip of...

There is this:
http://www.gunsnot.com/pdfs/scatt%20man ... -18-03.pdf
It is a written for a an older version of the software and there are a few bits in it that might not be quite correct (who knows!), but it should give you a start.
