Just thought I'd share my first attempt at 1600+m,
I was up at the cottage last weekend, prior to leaving for the cottage I made arrangements to hook up with a fellow CGN'er Sean from North Shore Barrels in Espanola.
Day one Sean joined me, we scouted for better spots for a bit but then decided to shoot on my property. We had one target set up at 340m and another set up at 568m. This posed to be a good distance to start up at as it was windy as hell that day, 40km/hr (approximately). Man I wish Santa brought me that Kestrel 4500. There were white caps on the North Channel!
We had 2 .338LM, a 260rem and a 50BMG out that day!
Unfortunately I did not bring out the camera that day, so no photos.
Day two was spent sucking up with the wife as I was gone the entire day before.
Day three was spent setting up shooting sites for Day 4, I found 3 nice spots to shoot from and 4 areas to safely put targets.
Targets were set up at 800m, 1040m, 1260m & 1605m.
Day 4 was spent shooting 75 rounds out of the .338LM and enjoying myself to no end!
Next time I need some company! AND MORE AMMO!!!!!!!
By the time I got to the last 1605m target setup I only had 10 rounds remaining. I was on in 2 shots, 20.5MIL elevation and 5.5MIL of windage (and allot of luck). But as the photo does not lie I only made 4 hits at 1605m.
First time at this distance, and let me tell you I was happy as hell.
I’m very happy with my T-Wolf!
A few photos!
