Wind is a MFer, brother. Anything under 600, it doesn't matter. It starts to matter at 600. At 800 it's tough if it's over 5~7mph. At 1k, it's murder. I can't get a break down here with it, either. Seems everytime I go out recently, it's a variable of 7~11mph, never constant. It pisses you off... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magwa Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 This for me is not about hunting long range other than wolves coyotes, it is a way for me to have something to do as other options start to fade due to age health, etc etc I simply love shooting steel long range the challenge is where the payoff is for me and not I have the passion back to build more guns (thanks to the folks on this website) enabling bastards! I have to keep moving or I am afraid I will just rust up and stop....... so now I am looking at building a upper for my DPMS 308 which has been a elk killing machine I want a 6.5 CM upper for it and I want to build a Bolt gun on a chassis with a smit and bender or Khalis scope in 6.5 x284 Norma that plan will keep me working till I am over 70 which is right around the corner....
