Five shots at 960 yards using 130 gr HVLDs. The mirage was pretty thick and wind was quartering from ~1:30 @ ~5 mph. After the 1st shot, I took .3 mils out of my elevation = 7.1 mrad, held right edge of the plate and let 4 more go. CTC spread on those 4 shots was 4.5".

You coming out for the match on the 24th? </div></div>
I hope so... I'm supposed to work that Sunday but should find out in the next day or two if I'll be able to swap with one of the Saturday guys. I shot out there today and all I can say is it was a stern lesson in humility. The wind was HOWLIN and constantly shifting. Dave said it was about the worst sustained wind he's seen out there.
