Tuner Tube: Do I adjust for 50yd, 100yd, or both?

Post by JerryJ »

I just purchased an Uptagrafft tuner tube for my Anschutz 2013, and I am only shooting outdoor conventional prone. So my question is: do I adjust the tuner for 50 yards, 100 yards, or do I need two settings and adjust during the match when the target frames get moved to 100?

Just curious what all the prone shooters are doing.

I normally do it using the positive compensation method. Here are a couple videos that Starik did explaining the method.

Here's a graphic I made showing how I do it.

I normally do it at 50yd or 50m instead of 100yd. Doing it at 50 tends to go a bit easier because there isn't as much group size variability. In my experience, the 50y positive compensation tune setting gives good results at 100yds.
