But I tell you what, those 180g ELDMs at 3000fps sure sliced through the little wind that we had. The Leupold MK4 8-25x TMR tracked great, not 1 issue there. I dialed for everything, as I dont practice with the TMR much, if at all honestly. Ive always dialed for the last 20 years so it's just what I am comfortable with. I did not touch my windage once, which was pretty cool, because all the 6.5 CM guys were putting 2-3 MOA at 1000-1100 lol. 2nd place was a 2 way tie, and I only beat them by 2 hits, I believe both were shooting 6.5 CMs.<br /> <br /> [ATTACH=full]205398[/ATTACH]</td></tr></table></td></tr></table></blockquote><p></p>
