"Bullet Drop"
they can get to be overkill, so keep it simple. Good info in, good info out.
None are perfect. you will need to shoot it to confirm unless you're shooting just to hit a torso sized steel plate.

I realize this is dependent on the total number of people that shoot, but how many rounds of ammo is a best guess that will be needed? If you shoot the cold bore and get the boot during the first round you'll need 11 rounds. If you make it to the end could be 50+ rounds. Good Luck,

Jump on in, slow, lots of fun and everybody helps….between angus, Buzz and me we probably get data from 3-5 apps and always willing to share…of course, when you see Buzz shoot you probably won’t want his data.

Great day? Holy smokes, look at those wind changes! .8 MOA hold isn’t much….until the wind switches 180 degrees as you pull the trigger! LOL

If I can figure out windage, I can at least get my 11 shots in Had some strong Margaritas tonight, hope I can still make it Unfortunately for Buzz he had his rifle dialed in for 400 yds but we were shooting 500 yds.  In my first match on my first shot: Me: "I center punched that sucker." Mikael: "You sure did, unfortunately that was the wrong target." Me: "Sonofabeach."  It was a great day with light winds and some outstanding shooters. Thanks Mikael for another great match.
I was wrong...on anything technical. Fitz............. is right, ya know............

Yes we did was a fun day indeed.
First time out there this year and was a beautiful day. Wind issues were minimal and I came it 3rd. First time in the winners circle for me, surprised me.
Thank you Mikale, Lori and David for hosting a great match.
Good seeing everyone today!
