I was finally able to shoot my rifle and take some pictures. Thought I would share, especially since many of the Sniper's Hide members helped me in picking my setup and gave great advice. Thank you. Plus, I was able to get out of work early, and do some shooting before the impending thunderstorm.

Next pictures were unknown initial distance 5-shot groups aiming at where the circle meets the tip of arrow. Turned out to be 220 to 225 yards.

Here is my best 5-shot group at 220-225 yards. Yes, it is a 5-shot group, 2 shots went through almost the same hold in the middle.
