[QUOTE="Down Under Hunter, post: 300342, member: 8486"] Heres a group I shot this morning with my Carlock 338 EDGE. Conditions were Alt 178 FT Temp 57 F 29.68 BP 70 % H My new swinging target was placed at 1342 yards. Now as I was getting all my gear together to shoot the wind picked up to a small gale... So I nearly did not shoot.. But then thought " What the hell ! ".. Lets do it.. Getting 38.25 up and calling the wind at 4-5 mph from 8 oclock I fired my first round... Whoa... about 4 ft right of the target with good elevation. So I got straight behind the spotter and could see about half way to the target the wind was roaring left to right. Next shot I called 10 mph wind same elevation with 5.25 wind. Hit on the bottom right. So holding slightly further left I fired 2 more for this group. Group was 11 " side to side and 3 " top to bottom. In a gusty 10 mph wind I thought this was fairly decent ?
