    Finally got to stretch her legs !!!!

    Decided fuk it, boss im taking annual leave today and made the most of the weather.
    My two labs and i made a dash for the truck at 1030 leaving my 5 month old and wife in front of the fire.
    Loaded the wagon rifle, bag and target board incase the wind wasnt funneling through my bush range and what'd ya know she was a calm as all day well as good as CNI wind gets so before checking out a new spot i finally got a chance to open up with the new 7mmSAUM.
    First setup was 310m then 510m and 735m as this is as far as the safe range goes in this area.
    Having never shot beyond 300m i think i did pretty well ;-)

    You will be happy with that for a first time at longer range.

    I'd b bloody happy with that. Shooting 700m with a 10x scope would have made for a tiny speck in the distance
