Just on the close, smaller targets aim a little low but not off the target and the longer targets (i.e. past 250m) aim at the top edge. The rest of it comes down to the wind

    Also the majority of our targets work out to be 4-8MOA in size.
    @Gillie

    Thanks mate

    Yes I have my rifle sighted for 200m, although GWH has made me a drop chart that suggests the zero is more like 125m

    I was smashing an 8" gong at 2 hundy with ease last week so I think I'm prepared.

    Looks like we're in for a good dump of snow this week so I'll be wrapping up warm.

    And you can cancel the "Bloody Wind", it'll be cold enough without it.

    Cheers

    After awhile you realise the Pig loves it.
