[QUOTE="Joel Russo, post: 802216, member: 6152"] I threw together a .243 AI to play with in anticipation of a PD shoot this summer. I'm in the process of making an exotic hardwood A-5 stock for it, but for the mean time, I stuck it in an A3-5L for some load development. It's shooting the 105 Hybrids pretty well, so I loaded up a few for fireforming and figured I would get some real world dope while the old man had fun shooting groundhogs. T'was a bit windy yesterday, and the old man missed more than he's used to, but I take the blame as I'm the guy turning the knobs.:rolleyes: We bounced around a few farms, and settled in on this one as there were a significant amount of critters in the 5-700 yard area. I knew he wouldn't break his 820 yard record, but hey... it was a good place to spend the day with my dad, doing what we love to do... At 85 years old, I cherish our time in the field wheter it's hitting or missing.. His longest of the day was 628 yards. [/QUOTE]
