Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Velocity!!! How important is it?

We're flopped prone here over a pack ,no bipod, no rear bag, at 300 yards.

7mm Mashburn. 2.5-3" high at 100.

Not in a real hurry for three shots but not screwing around either,about as fast as I could cycle and get back on target. It's a sneeze for that load and that's how I like it.





Same rifle, same load,same technique,except 500 yards with the second dot on a 6X Leopold. The help is there if it's needed past 300 yards and nothing wrong with that.
