[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 96839, member: 2011"] Too windy/snowy just plain yucky to day to do much but speerimint w/stuff. It is so yucky with the wind blowing within 15 degrees of the bullet's line of flight pushed the 40gr Vmax out of the 222 right at 8 inches except when it blew it only 5 inches [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] That was w/a MV of about 3600. Ya just gotta love that 10X and that ~60 year old 26 inch bbl. Also too snowy and stuff for the chrono to work thus none of my speeriments were logged in that manner. However, let me say that there are some interesting things to be learned when one gets way out of the box. 1) The ol'REM 700 didn't blow up. 2) I can't explain any of the other stuff I experienced but it was good. We'll see what's up when the day is right for the chrono and I shoot at some targets instead of a big old blow sand dune. I may have to get into LRHGH, Longrange Hand Gun Hunting. One of the things I learned that you can with one hand hold a REM 700 338 Win w/Holland QD and w/o scope, on the other side of a big poplar tree [shielding) and cut it loose and big whoopers, nothing. Impressive. Actually I shooting (pun) for #1 Darwin award, 2006 [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
