Something I've noticed at the shooting range

I thought that at 150 metres, 30 less than you are shooting the drop was over 10inches? Extremely good shooting for both of you at 180 mtrs, with a 23cm / 9" steel plate. No wonder they don't bother you.

4.6mils at 180m is 32 inches of drop. When I think about it it seems like a hell of a lot. The steel was about 1mil big in the scope so it didn't seem like a crazy feat at the time. I did spend hours on those drop tables so I guess it paid off.

Quick question what scope were you using or was it open sights????

SWFA SS 6x42 with MRAD turrets. It's a great scope for the money, but it was a huge pain getting my hands on one since we're not in America and all. It's mounted on a Savage Mk2 FV-SR.

Thanx that solves that. Keep up the good work!!!

I even had a guy twist the micrometre on my dies without thinking what he was doing .

You know what would help your shooting?

If I cock up your seating depth

Glad I never go to a range and put up with the stuff that goes on there. Easier just to go to the local state forest and bang away there. Just call it sighting in.

If you're close enough, that's the way.
