I got one but no zoom ??? What am I doing wrong ?  Spotter and iphone works ok at 1000 but gopro would be easier if I can figure out how to see soccerball sized rocks with it.

I mount it on the spotter with a phone scope adapter.


It can take a little work to get it dialed in and focused sometimes but it's worth the trouble.

I did put on spotter but must of done something wrong.  Was in a rush to beat the morning wind, going to try again this afternoon.
Maybe there’s a trick to it. I haven’t ever done it and don’t have a go pro but wanted to state the obvious anyways.  :chuckle:

Oh I read that and had to stop and think did I  ?  Ha.  I'm sure its a simple app tweak or something but I know my gopro doesn't have zoom but some app probably does.

Looking forward to the ELR season this year.  If Mother Nature would just figure out if it’s spring or winter that’d be great. 
Got a bunch of new spots scouted out.  1.4 miles, 1.65 miles and 1.8 miles.  37XC is ready to go and I’m just looking out the window cussing 🤬

My good spots are all snowed in until June. The snow this weekend probably bumped it back an extra week or two. :bash:

I was so hoping for early access.   One of my spots probably has almost no snow but is probably thin frozen layer over deep mud.   Barely made it out of there last spring.  Rolled in early morning on ice, left in 4 low.

Nice thing about central wa. We've been able to play for the last month and 1/2 here. And only a few minutes out of town!

Found a nice spot today. Lil windy but can drive to both target and bench at 960 yards.  338-378 was dialed in - lower left on target.  Was load developing Lapua with HBN.  Holey cripes!  Added 2 grains to get speed back up and looks like I need one or two more.  That stuff is slick.

Able to drive to the target is awesome! Good shooting too. 
Am I understanding you correct, it takes more powder to get the same speed? W/hbn
