When Things Go Right

Post by Corjack »

Last Saturday I went to the range. Tired of staying home. A couple buddy's met me there. On of the rifles I took was the 6.5 Creedmoor I shot the last F Class match. This time I had stuffed up some 140 grain Berger Elite hunters. Pretty much just a 140 Hybrid with a bit more bearing area. It was kinda rainy and a bit of left to right wind. I had only loaded up about ten rounds to try. At 600 yards is an ipsic plate that had about 6-7 bullet splashes on it. My buddy was shooting a 6 Dasher with 107 Sierras. I asked him to watch the plate for me. He said what are you going to shoot at. I said top left bullet splash. I hit it, then proceeded to hit, or at least overlap the next five shots on bullet splashes. I had him shoot it once. He asked me what my wind hold was, I said strait up. He raised his eye brows at that, held on a splash and overlappev it, about a half splash off of center. He got up and said , I hate you. I had a tenth left dialed in on my 100 yard zero. Did not bother to tell him that.m

Yes it is great when everything lines up and the load tuned to your rifle...

I hunt, I shoot, I camp, I fish. They are the great reset buttons in my life.
