[QUOTE="PanhandleGlocker, post: 3946352, member: 25311"] I did absolutely terrible. Something is wrong with my rifle and I can’t pinpoint what but other than that had a fun time helping spot and keep score. Competition was 10 round sets. You had 10 rounds to reach out to 1000 yards. 300 400 500 600 700 800 900 1000 Start at 300, once you have a hit you move on to the next. Targets were in 100 yard increments. Small targets worth double. It’s wild what the wind can do down the canyon. I was spotting for a few guys and looking at the ribbon fluttering in the wind. 500 yards was acting like there was a straight heavy crosswind and then 800 looked like there was a small breeze. I have some work to do though on my rifle trying to figure out where I messed up. I think I may have installed the Magpul stock and never checked zero again. Maybe somethings loose.. Maybe I screwed up my loads… I’m just not sure. Very irritating and I feel dumb. I also felt weird being the only .308Winchester shooter that I know of there. I’m pretty sure everyone was using some sort of Creedmor. [/QUOTE]
