Went out again with the the 7SAUM this morning. No misses (100 yard increments, starting at 500 yards) until I got to 1000.
Then I missed multiple times. Wind was swirling, changing directions, letting off etc. With the target being a little larger than MOA, it can humble you quickly--And It Did!
Moved to 1100 and 1200 and did just fine.
Started back at 500, on again.
Then I jumped to 1K and made 2 hits in succession.
The weirdness of wind. From the shooting position today we had wind from four distant angles while we were shooting.
Wayne also shot the XP at 500, 600, 700, and 1,000.
Then he hit the 1200 yard gong as well--It was a good day.
When Wayne was shooting at 1200 yards it had a 100 rounds through the barrel without a complete cleaning. Used a bore snake two times through at 50 rounds.
We chroned the 16" AR pistol today as well.
2666 with the 69 SMK.
Will confirm drops with it out to 500 yards tomorrow morning.
Spent several hours this past week getting real comfortable with the Glock 17. Using index cards as my targets at 7-10 yards is real fun.
Also shot both off-hand and prone at 50 yards and that little gun just did real well.
