    Yep on the winds....Ive never really had to take that into acct before so thatll be interesting lol.
    Fgw, we call those hills where I come from lol......
    I cant wait! Plans are to go down there next weekend, and try to shoot Saturday morning. I shot out to 400 at the range the other day to verify my drops with my trajectory charts and such. Out to 400 things seemed pretty spot on so hopefully Ill at least be able to keep it on paper as I go out farther.

    Having someone else along acting as spotter will make a big difference.
    Have them sit behind you with a spotting scope on a tripod.
    Keep the target in the bottom half of the spotter to allow for trajectory path.
    Try to set up your targets where there is dirt not weeds if possible and hits will be easier to see.
    Steep banks above old roads work well.
