Re: not beyond 1000
Good job! It's the wind that always drives you nuts. Just getting elevation seems hard at first but once you do it, it's not so intimidating anymore. Then trying to dial in the wind with your bullets going out there like a rainbird. You know you can do it. You just have to look and pay attention and make the right adjustment. Pretty soon you get it dialed in pretty tight. At that range it's never perfect but when you hit it always feels good. When you hit a good group/all hits at that range...it feels really good. When you hit a good group/all hits in the wind...flat out awesome!
