So the winter weather seems to have finally turned into a more pleasant spring type . I've been able too do some shooting with my christensen mesa long range 6.5 creed. I've run about 100 rounds through it now and I decided too put some distance between me and the targets today. 300 yards , 5 of 5 in a nice 2 inch group. Sweet, let's try 400. All 5 in 3 inch circle. Now I'm getting a little excited. Wind starts picking up a little, I have 5 rounds left, lets skip 500 and go too 600 yards. Using the hornady 4dof I put in the numbers for my dope. Dial in the scope and put all 5 on the 8 in steel plate with 2 inches of clean paint around the edges. I haven't even messed with tuning the load yet. Same seating depth , powder charge as I started with! I think I like my new toy!
