Joined the 1 mile club yesterday!

[Jayhawkhuntclub]

Forgive my shameless bragging, but I just want to share with people who have some appreciation for it.
Anyhow, I did it with my Savage, model 10, Oryx chasis, JP recoil eliminator, Athlon btr 4.5-27, 6.5 Creedmoor, 41.0 grains for H4350 and 147 gr ELDs. My ap was wrong on the drop all day long. It said 23.3 mils, but I made an educated guess and went with 24.0 mils. I was able to dial a max of 20 mils and held over for the remaining 4. I ended up with 4.5 mils of wind hold. By the grace of God, I guess the elevation perfect. I only shot seven shots. I walked it in; hitting the last two. I never dreamed that it would go so well.
If that wasn't enough, I was able to hit 3 in a row at 1,120 yards with my home build 223 Wylde (88 gr ELDs).
That was a pretty good day!

Congrats for sure. I’m out to 1350 consistently, but the other 400 yards has eluded me.

Nice! what altitude were you at?

 

[Steel head]

Nice! what altitude were you at?

You need some bullets that are a bit more slippery.

 

[Jayhawkhuntclub]

Nice! what altitude were you at?

1600' ASL

The target didn't seem to mind.

 

[Steel head]

The target didn't seem to mind.

Wasn’t commenting about you but to sniperwannabee‘a bullets as he needed a buttload of elevation when he did 1810 yards.

i will vouch for steel head hes got the best spots! But beware he will make you want more than just a 6.5cm

 

[Whiplash6.5]

[roostercogburn98]

Congrats. One day I’ll make it to the Clinton House and try my luck (relax it’s a shooting range in South Carolina!)

What are you talking about
You did fine with your 6.5.
By the way I looked at that target Sunday and could clearly see 3 smaller hits from you, possibly 4.

 

[The D]

Congratulations, that’s awesome. Is it more exciting than joining the mile high club?
