Got it out again today and after shooting some at 200 yards I moved out to 300 for this group. Not sure why it stepped out to the left like that but I'll work on that later. Barrel was getting fairly warm. Drop was about what I had thought and when I dialed my scope up that group was around 2.5 inches low. Pretty close to the chart. Next session I'll break out the handloads and see how they work out.

That 300 yard is even better than your 100 yard target 100 was 1.161moa, 300 is .735moa , even with that outside one. Good shooting.

It doesnt take much wind(less than 5 mph its 90 degrees to the bullet) to move a couple inches that far. Might have been that?

Actually, I did have a little breeze today. About as calm as I could get lately. Report called it at 5 from the north. Right to left on my target. That very well could have moved it a couple inches on me! Hard to get dead calm here. Ok, feeling better about it now. Felt pretty good, anyway! Rifle seems to be a pretty good shooter.
