Have the luxury of shooting out of the gun room on own 100m range so very quick and easy to do load development and hold overs etc.

Took my time to dial up and confirm 16moa is perfect dial up for the sub sonic load at 100m.
And shot this 25mm 3 shot group while aiming at the small marker 'V' on the arm of the red cross.

So need to work up a chart from the known 5moa @ 50m and 16moa @ 100m and have 17moa available on the Zeiss 3-15x42 HD5.
This will be perfect to quietly shoot small game to feed my dog while away in big game / trophy hunting areas.

Now the hares around the farm are in a whole lot of trouble.
Haven't been shooting them at all for the last year so there are plenty around for a 'proof of concept' shoot up.
Also good for shooting the pesky hut possums who keep you awake at night but don't want to shoot due to the noise of using the full power ammo.

Looking good
