[QUOTE="tigerwerkes, post: 1044826, member: 77967"] Bro, i dont have near the expreience or opportuntity to shoot long range as much as most of the folks on this fine forum, but i can attest that the info i have gleaned from LRH members enabled me to shoot a sub-moa 3-shot group on my first attempt (today!) at 600 yds from my 338 wm. Based on what i read here, i dialed in a load with an ES of less than 10 fps, but even more importantly i did it in less than 50 rds down range....these guys have done all the work for you so just follow instructions! Coincidentally I got on here tonight to once again thank this group of guys for sharing their knowledge and saw this thread going. You're in the same spot i was in just a year ago and today i reached a legit milestone while I was working on the next step in my journey, which was to development an actual (vs theoretical) range card. the group below (orange dots) was centered exactly at -67" from POA, just like the numbers predicted. It looks like its about 5.25 ES, but i didnt measure exactly. All i knew was that it was inside 6" and i went berzerk! I couldnt be happier with this forum and am truly grateful for the professional way in which it is run. regarding the hassle and potential of belted mags, this is the most fun and success i have ever had in terms of precision, and it sounds like your background is simlar to mine with plenty of experience with smaller calibers. So I say jump in, if i can do it anybody can. My rig is an all stock beretta mato, all i've done is lap the lugs, everything else has come from the load. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
