Nice buck, dude. Never seen anything like those antlers.

I hunt just west of you in the Detroit Lakes area. Looking forward to 2017.

Great! Awesome to see all these responses coming in. There was one big concern, and I would like to address that. Some members are hesitant about this - as they assume that we want names and addresses of people participating in this monthly/shootout. Absolutely not the case.The other thread - starte...

Skipper: Target received in the mail. 2.5" is the measurement. Thanks for putting this together. I have a question: how is it being scored? does the distance from the center make any difference? Or are you measuring the group size only? I know some folks like to measure the group and then add t...

I'm in!

This can be a monthly challenge. I do this on another board with a few other folks. I'll post a thread with that.

For now, I'm all in.

Thank you all. I shot this 3 shot 32 gr Hornady V Max Factory load today at 100 yards. 5 clicks on the turrets.

Title says it all. Looking to start reloading. Thinking of going the route of Hornady Kit. And they have a Mail-in-rebate for 500 bullets (223, 6mm, etc..). The kit looks like it includes everything I need - apart from the dies. I have some questions for the more seasoned re-loaders. Firstly, is thi...

Crunched some numbers and hit the range after work. Some strong gusts. No problemo.. Turned down 6 clicks (1.5 inches) down. Fired 3. Pretty good. Think 5 would be better. So gave it a click up. First 3 are grouped below. Last one up top. http://i.imgur.com/LwlNWDf.jpg Clean target. 3 shots at 100. ...

Any takers for a monthly challenge? Another board I frequent has a monthly challenge... maybe we can do something of the sort and have some fun!?

Cheers,

Thank you, sir. Looks my calculation was off as I entered the scope height incorrectly. Used the LRBC app from Vortex and numbers seem correct.

I am rather surprised that it is an inch high at 200. Thought I'd be pretty close to center.

Cheers.

50 yards. Then shoot at a 100 and 200 to see how it prints.

After you enter the data there two data points provided;

Max PBR Range
Max PBR Zero

I'm not sure what it means but in the sample I ran they were the same.

HTH,

Can you post a link to the site, please?

Been a while since I posted here. Busy with new job and a move to a new house. The.204 which was supposed to be my coyote gun, has been growing on me. Been shooting it more than anything else at the range. It is a T/C Venture with a 1:9 twist and 22" barrel. Ammo is Hornady Superformance, 40gr ...

Dang it. I missed this. Is this happening in 2016?
