Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Hunting the 6.5 Creedmoor

Hey BSA, haven't seen any 1k targets posted by you yet. What's up with that?

Here are my 1000 yard targets from this morning. The good the bad and the ugly. .308 155 grain Sierras, iron sights and sling.

String one felt good. Dialed 3 minutes right wind for shot 1 and just clipped a 10. Went ahead and converted that sighter to score and continued on. 3.5 right to .5 left wind range on this string. You can see what happens when you miss a let off with shot 5.



Let the barrel cool a little and started with 1 minute right wind. Bad call as the direction had shifted. More vertical on this string which may reflect some barrel mirage. Need to bring mirage band next time.



Let the barrel cool more this time but in spite of adding a click or 2 of right wind every other shot I was behind the curve as the group center shows. Except for that pesky let off at the end of course! 3 right to 1 right on this string



That was every shot fired this morning. Still looking forward to your targets.
