switched scopes Friday and got zero last night and went and shot today ,,will have pics latter from a friends cell,,started banging around at 800 and tried a new load with 140 AMax and H4350 and was impressed and will try and fine tune that load at a latter date but the few I had loaded looked real good,,
but there was where the fun started,,dialed back to 300 yards and shot one sighter on paper and hit about an inch left and started on the 5 eggs hanging at 300 yards,,first shot I held off the right edge and missed,next 5 shots I held just on the right edge and made the next 5 good hits,,rode the gator out and hung 8 more and loaded a magazine and made one click right on the Sightron scope and held dead center and busted the next 5 in a row and missed the 6th egg,,at that point I was tickled with making 10 300 yard egg shots in a row and just quit,,

will have a couple pics latter,

I wonder now if maybe some fliers I was havin was due to the Leupold scope as I had none fliers today out of 52 rounds fired,,none,,the 123 Scenars were hammering,,
 
on the 4th egg at 300 I thought I had missed but birdog spotting through his 8-80 March scope said it was a hit so I shot again and he said the egg moved but didnt blow up,,they had been hanging since last Sunday and must have been dry,,



three shot test with 140 AMax at 800 with 40 grs H4350,,should be about 2800 fps,
