What did you do at the range today?

[Q_Sertorius]

I am probably right that the crack probably explains why the best group I have had from that rifle is 1.8”, right? And the groups have been getting worse, not better.

Edit - I already contacted Sauer. I'll see what they have to say.

Hopefully they can get you something comparable.

Dropped into a spot that used to have some steel hung, and was pleased to find even more iron hung. So plinked off the mirror @ 900 with the 223 for a bit.

Zero check on a new bullet lot and shot some prs practice stages with the 223 and 6 creed.

shot some 22 off my porch at my 50 and 75yd steel plates, that’s as far as I can get because of the woods unless I want to go to the shooting range.

I was just practing shooting offnof sticks and my pack.

The last time I was out here at the farm, I lay down about 423 yards from my 12” steel and took five shots at it with my .223. At the time, I couldn’t really see or hear if I was hitting it, but it appears that I did alright. This is my view looking down from the target.

This is the 12” target. Need to work on the windage and elevation a bit, but otherwise happy.

Nice place.

Let’s try this again from 464 yards.

Cold day.

Cold “shooting mat.”

Cold bore.

Hot sun coming up to provide warmth?
Or just glare?

60% of the time it works all the time!

Any wind??
Vertical looks good.

ETA.

That wasn’t a criticism about the shot.

I did not perceive any wind. That usually starts whipping around after the sun comes over the mountain.

I think I should have used my Quick Drop number (1.5) for elevation instead of what the app gave me. That would have been dialing 3.1 or 3 instead of 3.2. That would have put it a couple of inches lower. One of those shots hit the mining belt.

I would like to figure out why I am about four inches off center on those shots.
