[QUOTE="Skinny Shooter, post: 75323, member: 716"] Lerch, good luck. Got my first 3 rounds off on a groundhog at about 1K a month ago and was 30 feet off. LOL After the 1st shot, the groundhog just sat there looking around and then started to move. My next shot hit closer while it was moving and was holding off on elevation and windage using my mildots. On the 3rd shot it's really moving across the field and lobbed one in for fun. Never got much closer than 20 feet in back and below it. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Couldn't get the lead worked out right. Figured if I hit a mover at that distance I'd have something to brag about. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [ QUOTE ] Lerch, Give 'em hell and good luck. Remember that get getting close to a P. dog at that range is an accomplishment so if you don;t get a hit right away, this is normal [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]! Just keep at it. I always say you learn as much with a near miss as you do with a hit so just see what happens and have a good time. Kirby Allen(50) [/ QUOTE ] Does that count for 600 and 700 yard groundhogs too? I'm missing by an inch or so at times with the 308 and it gets a bit frustrating... My longest is still at 522yards. Allen [/QUOTE]
