The ‘One-Shot-Kill’ Microchip
The death of the sniper’s databook is looming with Horus’ new ballistic software!
The dizzying plethora of gadgets and gizmos available to today’s shooter may make it difficult to select those that truly facilitate accurate and fast shooting, from among those that merely add aesthetic value. Few disciplines of shooting are more vulnerable to this dilemma than that of long-range precision marksmanship, or sniping. But even within this profusely merchandised specialty, the occasional new product comes along that is a definite keeper because of what it can do.
Pick up a book or read an article on sniping and one finds no shortage of well-meant advice, often complicated to the point of impossibility. To follow all of the proffered advice, one must not only have an impeccably documented and thoroughly researched data book, but also understand such heady topics as spin drift and atmospherics. While we can study at our leisure, when it comes time to shoot we are all victims of limited time and resources. There never seems to be enough range time to get our data books as accurate as we’d like even if there were enough ammunition to do so.
