[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 2141185, member: 3230"] Sound like your range doesn't have the greatest backstop. Hell, at our range it is not uncommon for some of us to boresight a new scope mount and then have another shooter spot as we shoot at a 36 inch gong at 500 yards. I have also seen numerous times where guys have shot at a 500 yard gong thinking they had dialed in the right setting, but not checking and whizzing a round over the 500 yard targets. And then there are the guys with open sighted AKs flinging bullets over the place at 500 yards. Even using the wrong profile I didn't miss that 24x24 target at 905 by much. If it was a public range with a proper backstop, it would have caught it. [/QUOTE]
