[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1115706, member: 48043"] Well, I got the rifle out to 555 yards today; I couldn't go any further without having a full value wind. I dialed 6.5" vertical into the scope and went to work. The first two groups were uninteresting... two close and one out (two inside three inches and one diving out 6 to 8")... then I saw I was shooting through some grass near the target. I had to move the target up the hill a good bit to clear the grass. I then fired another two groups using the truck hood with sandbags for a rest; both were sub moa. One was rather triangular between 5 and 6". I finally got everyone to stop moving in the truck (two kids, dog, and wife) and tossed a 4 shot group with a 2.15" vertical component and a 5" horizontal component; I guess the gusty wind still got me a bit.
