Default First 5 shots at 1000yds

Finally got to get back out shooting again today. I started out with my new 22, tried a couple different types of ammo @ 50yds. The center of the bottom target was just getting the scope on paper as this is the first time shooting the new rifle.













Then I took my big gun out to try some long range shooting, had a pretty stiff wind today though. First I set up at 800yds. Last time I shot at 800yds I was dialed up 17.25 moa so this time I knocked it down to 16.5 moa. I’m pretty sure if I took my time I could have tightened them up.













Once I seen that 16.5 moa was right on for 800yds I dialed it up 24.5 MOA stretched it out to 1000yds to see what would happen.





Only 3 of the 5 shots hit the paper, it was hard to judge the wind with no markers, I was still pretty happy with the results. 10 shots total, 5 from 800 and 5 from 1000 and only 2 missed the target. All calculations were just programmed into the Swarovski app, there was no other shots to see where the rifle was shooting. I imagine the two shots that missed at 1000yds we’re just off to the left of the target. I was holding 3 MOA to the left for wind.
