[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 846661, member: 1940"] I went out Monday and set up a lasered mile from a rock outcrop where there were marmots. My results were similar to the last time I shot at a mile; a few near misses, and a lot that had me wondering just where did that bullet go. I got caught by changes in the breeze, that I could not detect from my position, that might move my bullet 2 moa. As the morning progressed and warmed a bit from the freezing point I started shooting in, an updraft developed and I had to adjust down two full moa. At that point the wind current was moving around way too much for me to predict, so I packed up, grabbed my light weight elk rifle and hiked into another drainage. I shot two off the same rock at 631 yards, but it felt like cheating, gratifying cheating, after what I've been trying to shoot so far this year. [/QUOTE]
