Love the random black sheep in a foothold 😂
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

Did a bit of shooting last night with the chrono. V3 raises my poi a bit at 400 yards I guess.  Took the fun right out of it
I hung this plate with 1/2” rebar with long counter balance off the back to limit the swing.

I'm not allowed to shoot with one guy because I always aim for the hangers on his gongs. He switched to a T-post style hanger, so I started shooting the T-posts. :chuckle:

I fixed it last night and finally took out a different color spray paint.  Last time I painted them I got all the way out to the targets and realized I grabbed tan instead of grey.  Made it hard to see the targets when the grass died out

The take away from that video for beginners should be the conversation on moa and expectations. IE "they might be .5 moa here and there but only because the stars aligned at that time"..5 moa ay 500 but might not be at 100.  :tup:
