The rig and through the reticle - ALL shot with iPhone



Blue target at 800M, my handiwork with 3" spread.

My buddy started walking it in to the shoot-n-see.


Grey target at 1000M, with my crazy trigger squeeze.

My buddy shot the 4" spread at 1000M!


and the obligatory Tannerite at 400M


Thanks for looking and looking forward to my new Hornady 5 stage that's in the mail!
