I can't make those numbers all work. You sure about those corrections?

You didn't say 168 gr SMK or 175 gr SMK. I presumed 168 and ran it to 2600 fps MV to get this:

200 yards .5 Mil
300 1.4
400 2.4
500 3.5
600 4.8
700 6.3
800 8.0

One 10 rounder and one 5 rounder will be all you need.

Or two 5 rounders, but you may have to do a mag change in the middle of a stage.

I'll burn my barrel out in one match. Last match was 50 rounds and took all day in cool weather.

I'll definitely will have to reload after 5 rnds, cost me some time, oh well.

-Saturday August 29.
-100 yard zero is mandatory.
-The range will be available for zeroing from 0600 to 0700
-Match begins at 0730
-Bring food and water, lots of water!
-I recommend not wearing shorts. You will be on the ground some, I even wear long sleeves when shooting matches. A shooting mat will come in handy as well.
-Entry fee is $75. PM me and I will give you the address to send a check. If you do not show, you do not get a refund.
-Eye and ear protection required.
-3100 fps MV is the speed limit
-Cash payout for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places. How much depends on how many shooters there are.
-Know your scope and your DOPE from the muzzle out. Know MOA and Mils!
-Hopefully your rifle/ scope/ ammo is capable of 1 MOA out to 800 yards.
-Good form and speed will help, but you can't miss fast enough to win.
-Beer for when the shooting is over and the rifles are put away.

Andybody want to cook dogs and burgers? Handle getting the food and have everyone pay you for their lunch? I doubt there will be so many shooters that we can't break for lunch and then shoot the rest of the match afterward.

Lol. I doubt that would go well unless it's constantly in the shade. That or I will have to bring a extra rifle for her to shoot.

Yes the morning you arrive. I told you what to prepare for.

Dee, she would definately be in the shad all day long. I've got a 9' umbrella I would keep over her.

As much as I have waited for this I am going to have to miss it. Just got on a deer lease that is like the Amazon rain forest on the Red River. A whole lot of brush clearing before Oct 1.

So you'd rather stand in ice cold water and enjoy cool weather in August, than to shoot a rifle in 95+ ?

Wierd loco
