[QUOTE="KH_Outdoors, post: 3059971, member: 123559"] Got out to the range to zero and check my drops. So far so good! Checked my muzzle velocity again too, started the morning off at 28 degrees F. 4 shots Average - 3246 ES - 20 SD - 9.0 [ATTACH type="full"]553527[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]553528[/ATTACH] After a brief cool down and checking zero on another gun we were off to distance. Checked at the following ranges that I had steel at and everything lines up with my drop chart I made using the advertised BC (.600 G1), current muzzle velocity, sight height, and a good 100 yd zero. Yds - Strelok ballistic solution (what I actually dialed) 400 yds - 4.3 moa (dialed 4.25) 552 - 7.6 moa (dialed 7.75) 785 - 13.6 (dialed 13.75) [ATTACH type="full"]553529[/ATTACH] This has been about as easy of a load workup as I've done. I'm just going to keep practicing and documenting in the process. Besides ordering another batch of bullets there is not much left to do. Probably test temp stability of N560 on a hot day when they get here. I'd have no reservations about hunting with it today! All shots were first round impacts at said yardage. [/QUOTE]
