This year, he plans on doing a series of articles on the ins and outs of long range shooting. Stay tuned.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The biggest news isn\u2019t mentioned in this video, but it is public knowledge now. Ray Dennis Group, owner of Night Force Optics, has purchased Horus Vision. This means Horus reticles should be easier than ever to get in your favorite scopes in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>As the year goes on, part of my job at GunsAmerica will be educating readers on long range shooting. All the madness in that video that may have sounded like gibberish if you aren\u2019t one of the initiated will make a lot more sense.<\/p>\n<p>We will go over scope levels and ballistic computers and how to buy them. We will also cover scope selection, and how to maximize the equipment you have.<\/p>\n<p>As Todd says, \u201cLong range isn\u2019t hard anymore, it is within the reach of any rifleman willing to learn.\u201d The old standard of a 1000-yard shot is child\u2019s play with modern equipment.
