extreme range 800 yards

Post by varget204 »

At 700 yds it is farely esay to hit.The big change is at 800 yards; the wind can blow bullets 3 to 4 feet.i have had days i aimed 1 mil to the left edge of target[29" ] and hit the right edge of target.The large plates out to 900 yds are 16x24" the small ones are 12x 16". Bullet drop is just over 11 feet.I want you to notice groups are usually Horizonal or Vertical,the 40 v-max really hang together.I've made a portable target holder out of 3/16"corregated plastic,i'm going to start using at 800 -1000 yards on windy days.it's 36' sguare,I hope to find out where i may miss the smaller plates. goal: shoot petr off a skeeter at 100 metres :lol: :lol:
