[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 2098219, member: 101859"] When it comes to spotting your hits through a scope, you can be a mile off and think it was perfect. You can think you are making a hole in the dirt, and when you move over to the target paper, your not so excited. I can pretty much guarantee your rifle will shoot way smaller groups on a rock or be way closer to aim point on an animal than it will be on a paper target. Do not be impressed by rock or plate shooting. If you can't measure the group or distance from aim point, you dont know. The first 2000yd match I shot I was just dropping them right in there on the dirt berm. Sure looked good! 50"+ once I went to paper. Every long range shooter I know that shoots often knows it.
