[QUOTE="nksmfamjp, post: 2918357, member: 1951"] I love this thread. So many people buy a rifle and scope. Then they are done. My experience shooting over 300 yds is that it gets exponentially harder for every hundred farther. I was shooting 600 yds, a chip shot, right?;) The owner’s son was helping me hit a 12” plate. Flag was left to right 3/4 to fully horizontal, but I had to hold right edge due to other wind just to get a hit. Wind was blowing straight at me where I was shooting. Not sure how I learn my dope, sight in, learn my rifle and shoot my deer all in 20 rounds yet…:cool: [/QUOTE]
