Hi.
I got this scope, Leupold Vari-X III, 2.5-8x
I’ve never seen an adjustment like this. No MOA or MILRADs, just numbers..
When I adjusted it, I felt no clicks..
Can anyone tell me what these markings are referring too?

Got 6 boxes of H SST 117 super performance at Scheels. It was Online and shipping was a reasonable $7.99. I could not find brass in stock for 257 Roberts. It’s based o 7x57 Mauser.
I’m in SC visiting my son and wanted to go pick up some bulk plinking ammo.

I have a marlin 336, a pretty gun, actually won it at a safari club meeting(drawing).
Unfortunately, i have not figured out how to get it shooting better than 1.5-2” at 100.
I’ve tried 170’s and 150’s. I think marginally the 150’s shoot a little better. The CTBT RN 150 for 3030, shoot poorly...
So this unfortunate model 93, 22WM was in my house with 5.5’ of water for three days.
Dropped off the gun at LGS and they went to it. 2 years later still not done… the issue… getting a stock. Also, my son dropped it off so I had to work through him to get updates and eventually the rifle back...
Been a while since I’ve posted. Just busy trying to get the house back to 100% post flood.

Talking with a friend about a finnwolf 340wby. Nice feeling rifle/trigger, but first shot is high left by like 18” at 50 yards.
18” makes it crazy because if we sight for cold barrel first shot, follow up shots are so off, it’s not usable. And if we sight for the group, the first shot is a...

I’d love to have a 7mm WSM Model 70 or a 35 Whelen.
Thanks, Mark
P.S.a 8# keg of RL26 would make a great stocking stuffer…
