I got this scope from Rob S in early 2013, it had the elevated crosshair which I couldn't get used to, so I sent it back to Deon, $400 later, got a regular fine crosshair put in.  Glass excellent, has some faint marks in the finish from Kelbly rings.  C/W leather lens caps.   $2600 shipped and insured.  Will consider BR guns in trade.   PM for pics or more info

Like Jeff said, March scopes have gone up.  This scope is now CA$ 3200, at your door will be CA$ 3600

Centerfire Discussions / Backers
« on: July 17, 2010, 02:11:08 PM »
Can you use stationary backers set back 3'-5' behind the group targets and get distinctive 5 separate bullet holes?  It'll save me from making a moving backer system.

I'm going to try and get our guys to shoot a regular BR match instead of fun stuff.  I'll probably have to run another monthly shoot as there's only 5-8 guys that want to shoot pure groups.

Centerfire Discussions / Wind Indicators
« on: June 13, 2010, 09:44:51 PM »
We just had a shoot in Campbell River and I got to try out my new wind indicator that I bought from Killough Shooting Sports in Texas.  Man, is it nice to have.  A couple of other guys want one now so I thought I'd ask this forum if anyone in Canada makes one.

The one I have is made by Danny Keeney and sold though Killough.  It is kinda cheaply made but for $75 US with a stand, and it works, it's ok value.  I just would like to buy in Canada.

Thanks

Centerfire Discussions / Quantum Mechanics & BR
« on: March 27, 2010, 12:10:25 PM »
I know, I know,,,what kind of nut job am I.  I'm just a self employed logger/sawmiller/dirt dealer/etc., that reads alot of different stuff.  I came across an article in a science magazine years ago about Quantum Mechanics and how a persons thoughts can effect outcomes.  

I began thinking about effecting outcomes/shooting groups and did a little research and found this from a 1974 U.S. Army Ballistic Research Laboratory paper:

In quantum mechanics, reality is described by waves defining the probabilities of different outcomes from the same interactions. These waves manifest as what we have been taught to call matter, energy, particles, and/or waves when observed.

Quantum Mechanics And Consciousness
Getting back to established scientific theory, normal waking consciousness occurs when the nerve cell firing rate (synaptic switching rate) is high enough to spread out the waves associated with electrons to fill the gaps between nerve cells (synaptic clefts) with waves of probability of similar amplitude. This is described mathematically by the quantum mechanical mechanism of tunneling. These waves are interconnected throughout regions of the brain through resonances, resulting in a large, complex, unified, quantum mechanically defined resonance matrix filling a region in the brain. The waves are interconnected with each other and with information storage and sensory input mechanisms within these regions of the brain.
The nerve cell firing rate (v') at which this occurs has been modeled mathematically by Evan Harris Walker (at the U.S. Army Ballistics Center at Aberdeen Proving Ground) and corresponds to the threshold between waking and sleeping consciousness in people and animals.

Quantum Mechanics And Psychokinesis
By merely observing a phenomenon (resonating ones brain with it) one can affect the outcome, since the physical mechanisms in your brain are part of the wave matrix described by quantum mechanics. The information handling rate in resonance determines the amount of effect, along with the elapsed time of resonance and the probability distribution of the phenomenon you are observing [5]. According to Evan Harris Walker, quantum mechanical state selection can be biased by an observer if [5]:
W te is greater than or equal to -Log P(Qo-Qi) Q 2
where:

     P(Qo-Qi) = Probability that state Qi will occur by chance  
                alone

          W   = Information handling rate in process in brain
           Q    associated with state vector selection (bits/sec)
  
           te = Elapsed time

            Q = Overall state vector

           Qo = Initial physical state of system    

           Qi = State that manifests "paranormal" target event
The effect of consciousness is incredibly small on macroscopic systems; but it can be measurable when it occurs on quantum mechanically defined and divergent systems, where a slight change can amplify itself as it propagates through the system. The effect is about 1E-17 degrees on the angle of the bounce of cubes going down an inclined plane. Changes in the angle of bounce result in changes in displacement of the cubes that increase about 50% on every bounce, and the effect is measurable after many bounces [6]. The theory successfully and quantitatively modeled the differing amounts of displacement observed in experiments on cubes of different weights and weight distributions

Scientific Theory
Mr. Walker's ideas and equations would only be hypotheses if it weren't for the fact that they have been tested experimentally and found to predict the results of experiments with reasonable accuracy [4,5]. The evidence meets the usual rules of proof for scientific theory, and this makes Walker's equations legitimate scientific theory.
The non-local underlying wave patterns beneath manifestations of matter and energy that we hold in common with our surroundings allow us to influence reality and to obtain information about it using the power of the mind. This underlying interconnecting pattern is the very stuff of consciousness and manifests, not only as matter & energy, but also as psychokinesis, precognition and other phenomenon that are only now beginning to be recognized and embraced by some theories of modern physics.

Implications Of Quantum Consciousness Theory
Deflections caused by consciousness are not caused by force or energy in the conventional sense; but by something more subtle, namely effects within the underlying wave structure out of which matter and energy are manifestations (collapse of the state vector) [5].
To psychically obtain information about a target or to psychically influence events, one has to have one's brain resonating with aspects of reality interconnecting the brain with the target. The more one's brain resonates with non-local aspects of reality connecting with a target, the more communication and direct influence one can have on it. The more fundamentally diverse the potential outcomes of a process targeted are, the more effect one gets from resonating ones brain with it [5]. Also, the more small changes in the system tend to amplify as larger changes in the end result, the more effect one can get. This provides an explanation of why patterns exist within seemingly random events

Walker, Evan H. The Complete Quantum Mechanical Anthropologist. U.S. Army Ballistic Research Laboratories, Aberdeen Proving ground, Maryland, presented at the 73rd Annual American Anthropological Association Meeting, Mexico City, November 19-24, 1974.


Now I'm not a good enough mathematician to do the calcs, but what this guy is saying looks like it applies to BR and shooting. Back in the '70s I was fortunate enough to get some National Coaching advise for smallbore shooting and one of the thing I remember was to visualize shooting X's..We would first calm our mind and relax our body, get a sight picture and think about shooting an X.  Focus on shooting an X.  They still use the visulization techniques today in competitive shooting and that sounds alot like using Quantum Mechanics to shoot better.

I don't know if Quantum Mechanics has enough of an impact on shooting itty bitty groups, but according to Evan Walker it does some impact.  How to refine it and use it might be as simple as really, really, really focusing on shooting all the bullets into one little hole instead of thinking about that cute waitress at Timmy's this morning.

Something else to think about

Cheers
Greg
