[QUOTE="DIDIHITIT?, post: 1817332, member: 112615"] Just got back from the hills and shot at some distance. I confirmed drop according to vortex ballistic calculator and it was actually very close. I started at 300, then 400, 500 and finally 600. The only reason I didn't keep moving target is cause I ran out of cartridges. It shot 1/2 moa or better at every range except 400 which shot 3/4. I live in one of the windiest areas in Montana, so shooting in the wind is a given. I didn't play with wind too much as the goal was just to check elevation. But I got pretty close in the 15 mph wind using my bdc windage hashmarks. I learned a lot and had a bunch of fun doing this. It's the farthest I've shot paper before. I'm gonna go back out next chance I get and try 7, 8, 9 and 1000. Thanks for the advice guys! This is my 500 yard group. Just over 2" [/QUOTE]
