I was reading through my posts and I have only done 11 days including today. So I will report one more tomorrow.
Today winds were terrible. 24 mph out of the south. I picked 665 yards off shooting sticks. I had to hold 2 mils for wind, I moved my scope 2.8 mils from zero. I had a pretty good rest, I was using a tree as a back rest and had myself crunched up in a tight ball to hold the rifle steady....Hit. It wouldn't have been a hit in a 6" circle but I was very surprised I hit steel!
