    these 2 first off with CCI subs at 212yds to get started, shot another 35-40 mostly 50-120yds & called it a day

    thought i hit 1 at 406yds but no body found, it maybe just ducked at a near miss or managed to get down a nearby hole.

    not sure why this pic is over on its side ?

    tried to confirm bullet drop later but by that time of day the wind was to strong and all over the place, lucky to get 2MOA. . then it started to rain . . bugger !

    first group at 200yds without allowing for wind - second dialed 1.5mil for good center hit - 3rd at 408yds with the tricky fluctuating head/sidewinds really making things difficult . . enough for low hits

    all good tho . . hopefully get a good low wind day soon for some serious target work.

    PS scope now has 65MOA of lift added which gives a zero of 151.5yds and a potential elevation to get me out to 420yds.
    time of flight for 408yds is 1.5 seconds with a drop of 270 inches.

    You have the pigeons coming back. My Dad tells me that ever since he has been nailing the magpies and rosella he's seeing a lot more Tui's Pigeons and Kaka.
