[QUOTE="AKBman, post: 2398832, member: 898"] I spend a lot of time and effort making quality ammunition, then I go shoot and waste that effort. I need to learn to slow down, I make such simple errors, wrong dial up, incorrect yardage input into the ballistics calculator, incorrect wind speed, etc. I am tired of being stupid, and I need to introduce a lot more discipline into my regime when I get into the field. Does anyone here use a checklist, or some other pre-shooting routine? Today could have been a good day, shooting at 1388 yards, but first 3 rounds were incorrect yardage, and I didn’t figure out that my wind input was off until I was so frustrated that I packed it in. Nothing like figuring out that your elevation was dead nuts, and you didn’t score any hits because you fat fingered the wind. [/QUOTE]
