icked especially accurate rifles for sniper conversions. My examples are about 3 to 4 minute- of-angle shooters.
To someone who grew up using American sporting scopes, trying to figure out the Japanese sniper scope system is a formula for headaches. One afternoon I spent three hours and about 80 6.5mm handloads trying to shim my Type 97’s mount so it would be zeroed at 100 yards. I got it done, too. Next time out that rifle’s zero was completely off again. So what I am determined to do is follow Japanese doctrine. My 2018 New Year’s resolution is that I’m going to find which hash marks get me on at 100, 200 and 300 yards, and write them down. Then at last maybe I will be able to reliably hit something with them.
