No video just information!
My brother and I went out to shoot his new 338 Lapua so I took my AI AE 308 and Rock River A4 Varmint for some long range fun.
Both guns are wearing USO scopes! Both SN3 Tpal - 308 3.2x17 and the 223 is 1.8x10.
To start the day we set targets (12"x12" Steel Plates) at 404 yards and 712 yards. I also put an 8" pepper popper 240 yards.
I then punched the numbers into the Ballistic FTE program for the environmental conditions (already has my gun information as a favorite).
Temp. 66*
Station Pressure 29.09
Rel. Hum 40
Density Altitude 1776
Wind 8-10 mph from 3:00
Went to the HUD output screen and got the results.
Cold Bore shot went right out to 712. 20 1/2 IPHY up and 8 1/2 IPHY right - HIT first shot!
Subsequent shots - Hit, Hit, Miss Right, Hit.....
Shot 404 yards next with AI and it seemed pretty easy compared to that.
Rock River A4 - Same conditions but I started at 240 first.
Cold Bore - 3" left of center Elevation Right On - Next two shots Hit dead center. I think 2.5 IPHY up and 3.5 IPHY Right!
404 yards - 8.5 up and 6.75 right
712 yards - 29.75 up and 13 right
Nothing more than information here!
Had fun! Hope this helps any of you!
Oh yeah! The 338 is a hammer! Built by Saltzman Gunworks in Tipton, Indiana.
Go Shoot!
