Range Report 6mm Creed at distance in the wind.

[myates3]

Took out my RPR on Saturday AM tried to get going before the wind picked up no luck. Winds 10-15 variable also changing from full value to quartering right to left.

Ammo used factory 108gr ELD-M avg velocity 3001.

Target 12x20 torso @ 800yds.

I cheated and shot a digger in the dirt in front to check elevation and give me a hint at the wind.

Made my wind call and let 1 fly just passed the left side of the target. Held another .2 mils right let the next one go.

Ping I didn’t hear it but saw the dark mark on the plate. So I ran the next 4 just about as fast as I could get a good sight picture and trigger press.

Rewarded with a fairly small group slightly left and a bit high but smaller than I thought it would be.

Nice shooting. When it’s windy, I’ll try to either make a wind correction quick and run with it or if the call is right, like in your case, let them rip before the wind changes.

What is your load data for your 6 creed if you don't mind sharing.

He was using the factory Hornady 108 load.

Good shooting. The 108 ELD load shoots great in my rifle too.

The 108 ELD-M load shoots great out of my RPR too. I didn't chrono any of it, but with the information it pulled from BallisticsArc, I was hitting steel at 800, then took it out to 1250 without having to true anything and was still getting impacts. That factory ammo can shoot

Nice shooting

I went 6mmC a week or two ago. Only one range trip in and I'm really liking the results (came from .308). My rifle really likes the ELD-M's too. I've loaded some ELD 108's up but the factory ammo may be hard to beat. Out to 1250 it was smooth sailing in a pretty good wind.
