gnatshooter Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 Gnat, go see this post, there are images attached. Matt, I'm sorry, I can't find a link in your post. Timing a brake to 18:48:00 seems pretty radical, as my work on the 'cant' of front sights indicated that far, far less of a deviation from noon/six induced some serious errors. And I'm not sure this can be explained with pictures. In short, what's the reason for not strictly sticking to horizontal/vertical? And what justifies a deviation by 48 minutes? In theory, this issue would also plague guys who don't have muzzle devices. Maybe they need a brake with a cant to shoot straight. That would include guys like me.
shibiwan Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 Matt, I'm sorry, I can't find a link in your post. Tech support here to help - this is the link. Thank you very much.
Matt.Cross Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 You were overthinking that one just a smidge brother...
Rsquared Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 Just a smidge. Hmm. Is that more or less than a skosh? Or am I getting that confused with the RCH? <laughs>

gnatshooter Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 OK guys I'm laughing along with y'all... there's times when it's hard to tell what's dead serious here and when not. I'm still learning.
shibiwan Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 OK guys I'm laughing along with y'all... there's times when it's hard to tell what's dead serious here and when not. I'm still learning. 770+ posts and you haven't figured it out? <lmao>
gnatshooter Posted June 7, 2014 Report Posted June 7, 2014 770+ posts and you haven't figured it out? <lmao> Shibi, believe it or not, no. I post something light-hearted, I get slammed for lack of being serious, and vice versa. This is very strange, but I'm working on resilience. After all, this is basically a friendly group.

Matt.Cross Posted June 8, 2014 Report Posted June 8, 2014 It's easy, when these guys like you, there will be no end of grief. If they don't like you, cold politeness is the order of the day.
98Z5V Posted June 8, 2014 Report Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) Those of us who admire your boundless wisdom, such as my humble and curious self, would be glad to hear from you about why you have selected this particular timing, and whether that timing is viewed from the trigger or muzzle end of the rifle. Didn't see any link for the pix, but even so, what's the explanation for not doing things at noon/six? I've heard things about barrel torque induced by rifling, but nothing that required that much dangle of the angle. Matt, I'm sorry, I can't find a link in your post.

In theory, this issue would also plague guys who don't have muzzle devices. Maybe they need a brake with a cant to shoot straight. That would include guys like me. Too many questions. I figured you already knew the rationale behind my unorthodox muzzle device timing methods. Which are proven, by the way. Hmmm... surprised you didn't know. By now, I'da thought you could find a link to it and paste it here. <dontknow> And what justifies a deviation by 48 minutes Coriolis Effect. Edited June 8, 2014 by 98Z5V
