[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 599638, member: 2011"] Great feat. I'll attempt to catch up with ya this summer! Be cautious of GPS info from aerial images and hand held gps units. Aerial/Satellite images are at best 1 meter resoultion (1 meter per pixel) Hand held gps units are accurate in portions of football field. That is, without differential correction, maybe 30 yards on a good day. With WAAS differential correction it may get down to ~7yds but WAAS isn't consistently available due to trees, terrain, etc. We use year to year consistent/repeatable centimeter accurate units which are several fully custom rifles expensive and unless you can get your JD 8400 to the shooting spot and target you're pretty much out of luck.:) The appropriate for intended use LRF is still king.
