I got a new phone and haven't updated my phoneskope cradle  :bash: . This is the last group I filmed. I just grabbed a random school gun out of the safe to take to the Vortex Challenge. I cleaned, fowled and verified zero prior to shooting this group for data I did let sit until cool so first shot is cold bore. Target 5 was the only plate not completly shot up from LRU students that day red dot is 2.5" roughly. My personal 6.5 is slightly faster  :chuckle:

Shot Info:
970 yards
4475' elevation
Cant remember the exact temp, pressure, and RH iit was hot that day probably 90 degrees

Gunwerks LR1000- 6.5x284
Nightforce G7 - 5.5-22x50
Gunwerks ammo- 140 VLD @ 3005 fps
Prone off bipod

I will send you a message. I am definitely interested.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

I am most likely in. I can definitely do it if we do it early morning Saturday or Sunday. Won't be cold bore for me, still have to zero my scope!
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.
