    I lay down in the paddock under field conditions using bipod and no back rest to check zero. 6 shots. Savage Lightweight ,223, Hardy 1:8 barrel, 62 grn Makers. Zeiss HD5 3-16 scope.

    Last time I checked it a few months ago it was 1" high at 100 yards. It's been dialled quite a bit since and gets put into the back of the ute in an unfriendly manner and spends lots of time on a quad. A rough sort of life.

    The black circle I drew was a bit big and I was aware of drifting to the bottom of it when shooting so I sort of called those shots. Anyway, it is what it is. I left it as it was.

    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.
