Iceman is right. I find that a bipod gets snagged on the brush when I'm prone and crawling.

As far as wether a PSG-1 is a good sniper platform, it has it's pros and cons. If you plan to upgrade, go with a tightbore and accuracy type mods. They will increase your muzzle velocity a little and won't make your gun unreliable. I also dissabled the bolt so it wouldn't make as much noise when firing.

G,

First thing, set your mounts to elevate the scope's rear as much as possible to give you as much elevation deviation as possible.

Then, Set the dials at zero/zero.

Give a good couple of shots at your maximum engaging distance. Hopefully your rifle has a nice grouping.

From there, Adjust for elevation and windage with the scope to attain a good aim.

(ex. if after 10 shots you find the bbs always on the upper right corner of your crosshair, you'll want to adjust the elevation and windage in consequence).

Once you have made adjustments, start all over again, but with the new Elev./wind. adjustments.

That's the easy and best way of doing it.

Remember tho, this being airsoft and all, you won't be using a Mildot type winding of your dials... you'll want to 'screw/unscrew' a few turns every time you adjust... That's why i was making a reference to a 'airsoft-specific scope'... i wish they'd make one for that.

cheers,

Yeah, I see what you mean, thanks for explaining it to me. I gotta find an indoor place where I can shoot to do all my adjustments with out the wind factor.

Just throwing in an idea for the forum section how about starting out with 3 basic sub sections to keep things simple, and have somewhat of a division for finding info easily like,. Guns, Gear/camo, Tactics/field craft,.

It's all I can think of right now, but it might make it easy to navigate through all the info I'm sure will add up pretty quickly.

If we get an upgrade section we could make a specific thread for each gun. Have a vsr thread and have all the info, have a m700 thread and so on. That way things are easy to ifnd and all in one place.

Yeah... that'd be nice.

Like a section for the APS2s, then some other sections for different AEGs.. like M14, PSG1, M16 (SPR heheheh), or whatever.

It'd be a lot easier to find what we need. Not that many sniper rifles around anyways... well theres some... but u know what I mean.

That's basically what we're going to try to do. That's why we've been collecting names so that admins may find it worth while.

I'll tell you now that for the M700, not much in the way of upgrades without modifications.
