Did me some long range shooting today. (70 yds.)
« on: May 29, 2007, 04:48:59 AM »
Decided to try out some long range shoooting now that there is no wind in my yard. Its about 72 degrees out (lil warmer in the sun) 70% humidity. And about a 2-3 mph tail wind. I can fit about a max of 80 yards here if i really stretched it out.
But this was about as long as I could shoot concealed.

My best 3 shot group using a Mike tuned AR2078, with a barska 6.5-20x AO scope on-top. Shoots about 800 fps with crosman pointed, which is what I used today.
Its sighted in dead on for 40 yards. So the drop was about 8inches and a 3inch wind drift.


Enjoy :)
