sighters question
When shooting your five sighters for a standing event, is there anything saying that those sighters must be taken from a standing position or could you shoot them from a freestyle position--for instance, shooting one at the turkey or ram from a flop position just to check your sight setting?

Re: sighters question
Nothing against it but your sight settings may very well be different when standing.

Re: sighters question
Thanks Steve. With my .22 UAS gun, I find my sight settings to essentially be the same. I don't see the same results with my BB. I'm guessing the looser grip I use with the .22 is more consistent between the standing and freestyle events than with BB???

Re: sighters question
In Big Bore, the recoil in Standing & Creedmoor is totally different and will change point of impact big time!KickBass wrote:Thanks Steve.
