Great Times @ 1 Mile With Friends.

I had a blast with my friends at Thunder Valley a couple weeks ago. I hit a “Mile”stone!
Can’t wait to go back!

Cool pics and glad you had fun! Looks like the weather was perfect.

Awesome! What were y'all shooting and at what magnification? Any wind?

I was shooting a Gap 6.5 creedmoor with around 15x on the glass. Yes... lots of wind! Wind all over the place!
Other rifles my friends were using are Cadex, RPR, and a AXSR.

They day I busted my mile cherry was awesome.

Well I'm starting off with some pretty decent equipment so I think its achievable! I just need to get some trigger time

With some practice it’s not really difficult
Cold bore shot and adjustment at 1750 yards last week.

@lethalsquirts nice shooting. At TVP...the 1 mile targets are real targets.....not the typical 36" or 48" plates that most other places are banging. You hit a mile at TVP and you can hold your head high. It is a great feeling. Hopefully soon we will be able to reach out to 2500yds at TVP...can't wait!

Thanks! Honestly, it was a hard shot with a 6.5 creedmoor. It took me 6 rounds before I got my first hit. I just got really lucky

Thanks! I got lucky

Lucky is good.

Luck can be defined as that moment when Preparation intersects with Opportunity.
