So since there's a thread in the welcome that's gotten derailed with long range discussion. Lets start a thread about the subject (maybe even have a section added here) about the subject.
Anyways, time for a quick range report:
Finally got some range time yesterday at the club I joined a while ago... it was a gorgeous day for everything but shooting, it was cool and blustery with bouts of rain. The blustery kinda destroyed most of our hope of getting some good record shots, instead we were kinda focused just on getting bullets to hit the steel targets.
A while ago I put a 20MOA mount on my savage 10FP (.308) even with the scope all the way down, I was still holding down two mils at 400 yards, and only moving 2 mils high at 600. Wind was tough, and lighting conditions kept changing. (as well as wind)
Generally, in the past I preferred to dial in my dope, however lately, I've just been mil-ing the target to make my hits.
