[QUOTE="bman73, post: 717623, member: 31591"] So I guess a temp swing of that amount really doesnt have much effect on trajectory at all then at these ranges, or is it more a case of the bullet I'm using just being that efficiant and not really caring all that much about really anything that gets thrown at it. As a side note I was out again this weekend and just for ***** and giggles tried shooting my 270 winny at 1150 as well as my dad trying his 7 x 57 mauser with peep sights. Not nearly enough adjustment on either to get there so we just tried holding over, Lets just say we'll be sticking with the Lapua at that didstance. Dad however was hitting the 4" x 9" gong at 420 yards with his 7 mauser. We tried to get it on film but the camera we had didn't really pick up too much. Was still pretty proud of the old fart though:) [/QUOTE]
