[QUOTE="RMulhern, post: 613950, member: 999"] FWIW....guys I've been shooting LR a helluva long time.....longer than I care to recall matter of fact. First beginnings was with an 03 Springfield and I've fired many rifles and calibers over 60 years of shooting....all the way back to 1600 yards...or more! AND...my conclusion was over a long period of time that these so-called ballistic charts are good gizmos to con $$$$$ out of people. Now...some will of course rebut that statement but be that as it may....I'll still cling to my own experience and as stated conclusion! Shoot your rifles with the best load that you can get it to develop....record all data related to weather conditions and then use that data to help you in future shootings! Temperature makes a helluva difference I can tell you that from one day to the next and if not taken into consideration...well...you won't be close to what you're gonna want to hit! Once you've found a load combination that works...don't get caught in the trap of constantly chasing a magic new bullet because there are NO MAGIC BULLETS....just raw physics and well established science!
