    40 rounds of my new R16 load.

    Had to adjust a lot for changing winds but I got some good notes on wind calls today.

    1791 yards at a 24”x24” plate.

    Plate took a beating.

    Here’s a video I did at my 1125 yard spot to show recoil to a buddy.

     
    Very nice! I missed this thread before, so I’m glad I caught it now.

    I agree that there is a specific thrill with calling and connecting at these distances. I haven’t shot ELR in over a year now. Primarily due to lack of convenient and affordable locations to do so down here.

    It looks like you have a beautiful spot there.

    Nice shooting! What was your DA? Just curious.

    I’m pretty lucky.
    By far it’s my favorite kind of shooting.
    Right now it’s archery elk there so I’m giving them a break.

    I have another couple of spots in eastern Oregon that I can go to but I’m waiting for my 7SAUM barrel first.

    Should be ready really soon.
