I know this ammo and rifle can produce a lot better results. To be honest, I'm not happy with these targets.

Human heart is about 4" across. The Black Hills match was loaded for benchrest shooting. Tha Lake City was loaded for CONSISTANCY across lot numbers so snipers could keep the same dope on the scope and expect the same POI at given ranges. Ya done good with a crosswind

It's not new, doc. It's already been broken in. I'll keep that in mind for the SPR, thanks.

The biggest pain in the a** you'll probably ever have to deal with watches you from the mirror every morning.

Good judgment comes from experience, and most of that comes from bad judgment.

If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging.

Exactly right! Most people tend to think that sniping is about head shots. That's only for hostage situations, which are rare.
Best not to try that beyond a 100 yards.
