Guest remmy Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 (edited) i invited foxshot up for a bit of long range targeting, we shot out to 325yds due to windy conditions, we shot bricks out at 325yds and a full size roe target out at 225yds, the windy conditions were blowing the bullets about 9" off target still we both managed very good groups heres a few pics of our day,the blue patch was stuck onto the roes neck i shot the first hole then followed up with the next two shots@ 225yds not bad for a very windy day, fox shot did a fantastic group with his custom rifle @ 100yds rgds dave.

Guest remmy Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 it did stay dry but a very strong windy day not good for targets to be honest. Quote Link to post

Deker 3,478 Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 Hi Remmy Where do you buy those sharpened pencils to make the "bullet" holes...they are really good and very believable!!! I'm back on with the .243, when you going to put some of these girlie .243 home loads in the post so I can give them a try! Out zeroing mine again today at 100 yards...still only a handful of rounds through it.....and my group was not that tight........I know ...should have bought a Remington not a Tikka!!
