You might be wondering what exactly the significance is of this “scope.” Since this issue of RECOIL is a nod to precision shooting, we could have gone the traditional route by throwing in regular optics and ballistic coefficient charts, but we thought it'd be a whimsical way of calling attention to those who tape data cards to their stocks, often travel with spotters, and can hit a target without your ever knowing they were there — snipers. Despite what Michael Moore might say about those amazing marksmen (and women), they possess a skill that borders on a sixth sense and protect Mr. Moore's ability to be one of the wealthy one percent he despises so much. Some of the patches are pretty straightforward, while others offer a little humor. Whether it's something of the MLB persuasion or one that isn't too far off from a whiskey label, we're certain it'll strike the fancy of anyone who has their DOPE dialed in. So whether you're training to do some PRS matches or want to become the next Carlos Hathcock, take a gander at these and enjoy.
