4,258 Yards

Jason Greenlee, you were robbed!!! LOL. Jason skipped 2 into the plate by hitting the rock right in front of the target. They are circled in blue.
But the real hero of the day was none other than Mike Collins, our RockStar! Mike was the only one to connect with the plate, and we’ve proudly circled his impact in green.

The red X’s are my 5 shots. Although at first glance it may look like a lot of dispersion, but actually it is not. Unfortunately, we were not able to see any impacts, and therefore not able to make any effective corrections to get on plate.

At 4258 yards, .1 mils is 15.3 inches. I have an extreme amount in confidence in my rifles precision, and was very confident in my wind call. So I made the decision that I would make very small corrections in the event of a no call.

The information given to me, by the picture attached was shared after the shooting.

My first round landed on the right third of the target, .1 mils low. Wind at our shooting location was right to left, and mirage had a very slight right to left component. When we had no call, I decided to move .1 right. 2nd round landed 15 inches to the right with less than 10” of vertical. With the terrain features on the cliff face, a quick decision was made to come up .1 mils. The impact moved exactly as expected, up 15”. With the wind prediction I moved an additional .1 right, it landed as expected, right 15”. At this point, I was afraid it was dropping into the shadow below the target , so dialed right another .1 mil and held slightly above center. Again, as expected it moved right 15 inches and slightly above shots 3 and 4. Even with the holdover, 3 rounds has less that 22” of vertical at 4258 yards!
