You better wait to be able to sight it in yourself, because what works for me, my eyes, heights and constructionmay not be good for you. I know it does not make sence, but I have seen in the past people sighting in for others, and those others cursing them later on for doing a poor job, even though they had it in 1" at 100yrds.

Exactly
Go get yourself one of those nice bench rests, you've seen them on tv where the guy puts an egg between his shoulder and rifle.
I use a economy bench rest for all my rifles and it takes away some of the recoil.

You all are right. I think I'm a bit nervous because the season is close.

Lead sled works great.. You can always try a laser bore sighter too- never tried one but heard they are pretty good.

Honestly -seems like a lot of ppl have helped(and who gave good advice)who are more generious& understanding then yourself.( why bother posting on this one magman?( just to take a dig at him?)

( guess its not only the poltices forum that brings out the worse in ppl?)

( the guys still healing from surgery& sore-so hes a littleapprehensive& time is getting short)
Not so hard to understand really.

Good luck Camelcluch

Thank you Knightia! I tried to ignore thE comments made by M.M. but can't much longer. I know one person that I wouldn't let behind me with a gun! M.M., I'm sure there are plenty of disabled hunters out there that are great to hunt with. You have insulted a great number of people with your comments. Unedcuated spewing of words can be a true sign of what a person is about. So with that, STFU!!!!

I constanly see obsene and unnessary posts from "MagnumMan". Isn't there anything that can be done because of this. I hate it when someone make point to call someones disadvatage. Its juvenile if you ask me. I just dont understand how BA you thinkare to make a comment like that. It seems MM is always sturing up some kind of drama. Whats with all of that?

I hope you don't ever wake up and relize that you are not 8 ft tall and bullet proof! Mag I guess you must have an "S" on your chest and never needed help?

Honestly who would want to help a guy who can't even help himself to the range?
Yeah I've seen you make an total a$$ out of yourself on this forum before, and you know what, its uncalled for, I really don't know what your malfunction is but I would suggest fixing it, because nobody cares what you have to say.

I madea statement that should have been offensive to nobody, I'm not making fun of handicapped or less abled folks, but I am making fun of lazy sportsman, camel, do you honesly think getting on a forum and asking complete strangers for help is really going to do any good? and on top of that, trying to sound macho by listing two calibers that might have to much recoil for some people isn't helping either. And camel I think that little stfu comment is uneccesary, I don't know how old you are but making a comment like that makes you sound about 17 years old.

You must be some kind of a "Tough guy" if you were truley able to do that. That "S" on your chest must work cause I see you grew up from a 300 to a 338!!

...camel, do you honesly think getting on a forum and asking complete strangers for help is really going to do any good? ...
How do you know that we are complete strangers? I mean, there are at least 15 of Denver residents that come to this forum and chat all the time. People help people, especially rare breed that hunters are, we are willing to help strangers, let alone somebody from the same town. This is not East Cost bubble man, we are still humans arround here.

Whatever you call yourself, it's the same story. Bud, go away already. Go back to lonely self. It's clear what type of person you are when a teenager (younggun243) called you out. I hope that the mods ban you and save the rest of us from your trash.

Actually me and younggun243 got along quite well, he never called me out, and whatever he said I can assure you he was kidding. And camel, yes Of course I'm lonely my wife died 3 years ago from throat cancer, haven't had a job in 2 years and am living off relatives, camel the thing about me is, if i don't like you I'm going to let you know. So if you can't handle it like a civilized human being then maybe you oughta look in the mirror beofre berating another person.

If you have had the terrible times that you have written of and are as cold hearted as you are.........I hope the man upstairs has mercy on you. I hope that you was more compassionate toward your wife.



And I can sympathize with the shoulder surgery!

Why don't you just shut the crap up and quit using other people!
This is a forum, not the UN! If someone says something that youthink is"calling out", then you need to get back to your social studies and learn how people talk(talk means that they communicate by means of vocal or, in the virtual world, visually address each other. I'm sorry, I bet that terminology stresses you out a lot! If I can't help you, then get back to school! At least I learn better!)
I don't care if people goof on the forum, everybody does it. When you goof up camel, we'll treat you the same.
SO bottom line, SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!!, and never,never,never, use me or any other member as an example!

RE: Need help sighting in
 
You morons! You got MagMan banned! He only posts one sarcastic comment, and you, camel, act like you got stabbed in the back!
He says,"Why even give advice to a guy who can't help himself to the range."

I'm not being not caring here, but if you really can't help yourself to the range,what's the point? Why don't you wait till you get better to ask advice from everybody, so that the adviceis stillfreshin your head?
What kind of nerve do you have? He posts once, and you say
" Oh, I can't ignore you any longer!" Hmm.... since when did you get to have the right to say 'longer", because apparently, you didn't tolerate him at all! How can you expect compassion, when you give none to others?
I think they should've banned you! For using a sarcastic comment to put a guy away! You're just selfish! Oh, you want to ban me now?

Go the heck ahead! You make this great place stink!

youngguns you need to back off if you can stand behind what was said you are no better than he is. Some one ask a simple ? and ask for help and this guy trys to slaps him down this forum DON'T need that. Bottom line is this, I to have 7neck and backoperations and ask people for help doing things and I am d@m proud I did not run into this guy. I have talk to you before in PM and I will tell you strate up whenyou drop to the level of calling people morns you have run out of anything good to say, I fell sorry for you and will pray for you, take care. One more thing as for posting once yea right go thru the different forum and read a lot of his post he was allways trying to stick it to somebody. One last word GROW UP OK two words



Just my 2 cents

Ok I have nothing to do with this, but you people treat God like a creature to be feared "Oh I'm gonna pray for you" like it is something to be feared. To tell you the truth, most people I have met on this forum are in the know of God and Jesus. So pray for him if you want. But he prolly does his own.

I find it interesting what a BIG set you have when you play goodie goodie on thist fotum and then send a PM like this lets get it all out in the open Gentlemaen of this forun this is the PM that was sent to me I think you will find it good reading as to the type of people these guys are.

Here is the PM I was sent from Magnum Man the man that knows it ALL.

Quote(Yes I have to ask you why you care so much about what an individual thinks or says, yeah I know your type, you guys play the holier than thou game, "Oh I will pray for you", and if I say anything you respond with "A real Christian wouldn't talk like that", why don't you get a life buddy, I came to this forum to help people out, and if I give tough love then so what. You need to just back off, before I report you for making staunch allegations, you can tell me to grow up or whatever you want, but yeah you better be glad you don't know me, because we'd probably be friends. And as for you comments, who cares?????? it is a forum on the internet, so your threats and other tough words fall on deaf ears, your not intimidating, and I don't fear you, and if I get banned, so what I'll just get another account. And btw the prayer thing might scare me if I was an atheist, which I'm not. So you better get your facts straight before you pursue me or youngguns. Thanks, Have A Nice Evening.)

He as it downpat flip his nose at the MODS he will do what he wants. I guessthe forum has a new owner.
