And the argument could be made that noticing that movement gives you a better chance to fine-tune the shot/body position.
#UNERTL 10X TACTICAL SCOPE HOW TO#
You know how to build a position, the rifle will be just as still regardless. Your heartbeat/body is moving the rifle just as much on 10X as it is on 20X, noticing it has nothing to do with the accuracy of the shot. I never said it applied in all, which is the beauty of a variable-power optic. Obviously you didn't major in reading, because you ignored 'most cases' and 'can be'. My wife will tell you I'm just a poor dumb educated country boy! Also, shooting moving targets is much easier to acquire, lead and shoot with lower magnification than higher, even at longer ranges and especially short ranges.īTW, I'm an A&M grad. 338 Lapua mag with just 10X without any issues. I've hit a 2' steel circle at 1600 meters with my. I've just never seen a need for anything over 10X. On a cold cloudy day the higher power doesn't contend with the mirage but the reticle still bumps with the heart beat and body positioning. Using anything much over 10x in the Texas summer or fall you'll find the mirage a nightmare to see through. I can still feel it and try to shoot between heart beats. Including any body changes in my position that aren't rock solid.
When I shoot my wife's rifle with the scope power set to 14 or my sons rifle set on 18 I'm very prone to notice my heart beat and the movements in the reticle that go with my heart beat. I will respectfully disagree a bit on this one. What about that is confusing to you? I guess more clearly stated, higher magnification lets you see things better in most cases, and targets that appear larger can be easier to hit. Just keep an eye on the mounting of the scope and that no extra holes are added to the rifle."The better you can see something, the easier it is to shoot it." Just wondering what this really means - as a former TT student and grad of a NM university and and OK university.just askin? They just give the firearm a very distinct look that only adds to the firearms character. The best way to buy a Unertl scope is when it is already installed on a classic firearm. But I would think the Unertl hunting scopes would be very desirable. I do not remember many Unertl hunting scopes coming thru the shops I worked in over the years. But they would not be as desirable as the target scopes in that period. The Unertl optic company would produce some rifle hunting scopes in the 1950’s. Some of the nice Winchester pre-64 70s in 22 hornet or 220 swift would have this style mount installed and it does affect the guns value. It did not happen often but you do see them that way from time to time. They were very long and because of the length of the scope many gunsmiths of that era would drill and tap holes for the scope mount into the barrel by the rear sight. One of the drawbacks with the Unertl optics is how it had an effect on the collectability of certain firearms. It would be a very pleasurable experience for them and yourself as well. Those combinations are great for taking your kids out and teaching them how to shoot. Unertl scopes are still very usable today and can be a good investment especially if you can find them mounted on the Remington 40x or Winchester 52 target rifles. Shooting those guns was an experience I will never forget and it was quite enjoyable. You could litterly shoot the toes off those squirrels. I could shoot and watch everything that happened. Because the guns were so heavy there was absolutely no recoil and with the 24 power scopes the squirrels looked like the size of bears in the scope. I remember taking one of those two Remington rifles to my in-laws farm and shooting squirrels and chipmunks with those rifles. They were both from the 1950s era and were in really top notch condition. I had two Remington model 40x target guns with 24 power scopes that a gentleman brought into our shop in Northeast Pennsylvania for us to sell. I had the pleasure of shooting a few Remington 40x target rifles and also a few Winchester 52 target rifles that were mounted with the Unertl target scopes. They would produce target scopes from the 8 power to 24 powers, and I considered them a great line of target scopes.
Unertl scopes from the 1950s and 60s era were probably the prominent target scope made in that era.
