Downrange results at 500 yards by Longhair. The square measures 4".  The group is .8 MOA or about .2 Mil high.
Excellent shooting from a suppressed Howa in 6.5 Creedmoor.

The wide open spaces of the Whittington Center. Looking back to the firing line from the 500 yard berm.

Mucho thanks to Longhair for taking these pics in the last rays of sunshine at the end of another big day here in the West!

BlueFeather spots for xonlyj. Spotting scope is a Bushnell Legend T with Mil hash marks.
olfart and I help with any correction that needs to be made on the scope.  xonlyj makes that correction. All data is recorded!!

Longhair squeezing one off at 1125 yards, follow thru is extremely important.
Note the last minute adaptive bipod elevator.

xomlyj makes a solid hit on the same target with his 6.5 Grendel....which is an amazing little performer.
