[QUOTE="CB11WYO, post: 979492, member: 57339"] Went out early on Saturday to get some practice in with the 7 Mag in preparation for hunting season (man I can't wait). Turned out to be one of the best sessions I've had with it. First shot of the day was at 775 (the purdy lil' dent just off the orange bull). Probably the best cold bore shot I've ever pulled off, as far as hitting bullseyes at long range is concerned :D I figured that was good so I backed on up until the Leica told me I was 1225 yds from the gong. I cranked up the elevation and dialed 7 clicks for what felt like a 3-4 mph wind. Then I let 'er fly! Confirmed with a splat and a "ping." :) It's the impact in the top right quadrant. Sweeeet... Just for kicks I adjusted down a click and left 2 clicks and sent another one down-range. Again a splat and a "ping." :D (the impact in the lower left quadrant) I was pretty impressed with myself, not to mention the rifle... best I've done for a while on first round hits at long range. The goal this year is to make the 1000 yd club :) got a cow elk tag and 2 speed goat tags to do it with so we'll see. Happy shootin'! [/QUOTE]
