Welcome Exterra (and shoot for Scope Rings)

How long till the drawing? The weather turned to crap here and kind of killed my plans to get out and shoot.
There is no set time frame, more of a participation level. We understand that it is the middle of winter and it may be difficult for some people to get out and shoot. We want to make sure everyone has a chance to participate. There are enough of our targets out there to have over 50 entries by now, so you are not the only one having trouble getting out to shoot.

I've been waiting all week for the weather to clear up, so that I can shoot. I don't mind shooting with some wind but 70 mph gusts are a bit much for load development.
 
I used the target while testing a new factory load for my Sauer 100 in 6.5 CM. This was the Fiocchi 129-grain SP. Clearly it is not the right ammunition for this rifle.

Here is my humble submission. 22 arc using the painless load development method that I learned here. 100yds seekins nx15 prone suppressed with a swfa 6 power View attachment 1024588
Thanks for posting the target. What load did you settle on for your 22 ARC?
Good luck in the drawing
 
Got out to shoot today. 223 shooting 73gr ELDM, 100 yard 16 round group, should have been 20 but some dumbass didn’t reset the turret from the last time he was shooting at 600 yards so the first 4 were high….

Second gun is 6.5 creed, 147 ELDM, 100 yards, 200 yard zero, 17 round group. 5 rounds with Reaper, 5 with Scythe, 5 with Omega. Then 1 with the Reaper and 1 with the Scythe with no muffs to hear the difference.
