I got 34 that time, and Im not playing it again.  The best bit was the sound effects.

Got any better ones

Didnt think it was very flash at all

I dont get this, tried following the guide things and doing the maths and the bullet still landed waaay in front of the target.
I'd type my pc specs out all fancy again but teh mods would remove it. Again.

The scope can move 'up' more than one revolution. It doesn't stop at 14.

Someone please explain how this works, because I'm doing the math and everything works out wrong.

You can use maths with it?

I just put the scope where I thought it would hit, and made random adjustments if it didn't.

Makes more sense, still doesn't work out though.

Maybe I'm using the range card wrong. Say I figure out a target is 1000 yards away. The range card says 35.5 Elevation MOA. Do I just plug 35.5 clicks on the scope? Or it there something else I need to do?

35 full clicks on the scope. so you'd go around twice +5

It lists the numbers at the bottom near the trigger, you don't need to read it off the scope.

Someone just explain what they're doing because this still isn't working for me...

The way I was working it out is:
Target seems roughly 2 dots high?
Target is 72" tall, so (72*27.778)/2 = 1000 roughly
1000=  35.6 MOA
so I go round that scope twice and go to 7.5 roughly
bullet lands at about double the targets height.

I know the range cant be 1000, seems to be about 700 ish. Guessing i'm going wrong with the dots thing?

Oh wait, it seems to be that the numbers from the range card to put in as minutes, not clicks.

Your first shot gives you your ranging. After you get the first target down you have a known range and can adjust from shot to shot after that. Every mil-dot below is 50 yards, every mildot above is 50. Adjust accordingly. Wind is a crapshoot.

The math never quite works out. Distance wise I was out by 15 yards, which I guess isn't so bad, but adjusting for wind I'm off by 8 inches, which even if I could figure out how to adjust for wind would put me way off.

Yeah, but I don't get how those numbers related to the number of inches the bullet is supposed to drift.

An elevation of 21.5 and right 1.75 puts it pretty much in the middle of the "head" yet that still only counts as 10 pts?

ooohhhh... maximum of 10 on each one.
I get it now, apart from the maths bit.
I pretty much get the scoring system

How are you determining wind drift?

Roughly guessing the eastern component of the wind, using some trig and rounding. It kinda works. Not well though.
