[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2848440, member: 5412"] Just to clarify, very few three gunners use red dots unless its a close course of fire. Most use high end scopes with minimal magnification because of the nature of the game. 3 gun is a wild cat type of competition where on the same stage one can use pistol at ranges from 5-35 yds, shotgun at up to 50 yds and rifle ranges out to 600 yds. The game is to hit the targets as fast as possible while transitioning between guns and targets. The targets for rifle at 35 yards are shot with the same rifle/scope combo as the 600 yd targets. 10" plates at 600 yds at some matches with rapid fire using AR platforms require good brakes and an immense amount of skill because they are not shot from a perfect prone position. Tenths of a second can be the difference between 1st and 4th. Its not precision shooting, and I admire those long range shooters to no end that can put small groups at a thousand yards and better. Amazing skills that require lots of shooting and knowledge of what happens out there. I've been privileged to shoot one of those rifles, and its really incredible. The can question was ancillary brought up by you. I answered the OP's question and gave him the answer with a phone number of the people that would know with out a doubt about the thread needed. He wasn't asking about a can in the OP. Its all good. Just wanted to clear up any questions. I didn't take any offense. [/QUOTE]
