I was shooting the 140gr amax pills Gillie from memory they where right in the edge of transonic?
Maybe they where under? Unsure I don't have the data anymore.
But it was easily grouping moa which I found amazing.
You had time to pull the trigger, lift your head and remove airmuffs in time to hair a faint ding

Yep pretty cool, when shooting those sort of distances i have to remind myself to squeeze then "thousand one, thousand two" and then look for the impact! Otherwise i am generally too quick to cycle the bolt and miss seeing the impact through the scope.

one thousand one, one thousand two, you should try one thousand five & a half
