Yesterday, 6/29/20, I took my 8mmCoyle to the range for final zero at 300 yards with the Hammer Hunter 198 grain bullets. I fired three which formed a 3 5/8” group about 3” below aiming point. Perfect. Then I did something with my Bushnell 6500 4 1/2-30X50 Elite that I never tried before. According to JBM I needed to dial up 3 1/2 minutes to hit at 425 yards and 5 1/2 minutes to hit at 500 yards. There is a 10” plate at 423 yards. I twisted 3 1/2 minutes and hit the plate. Then I returned to zero and fired two more which were inside the group. Next I dialed up 5 ½ minutes and hit the 10” plate at 508 yards. Returned to zero and fired two more inside the group. Average velocity from the 24" barrel is 3,054 feet per second. The Weatherby six lug rifle weighs 7 1/4 pounds ready for hunting.

New barrel fired 44 times


Outstanding! Agreed on not counting clicks. Have played some with the dials and pretty much have it down now. Still in my case if the wind is much over 10 mph and the distance over 400 yards things are getting a bit dicey.
