My memory is not what is used to be according to Strelok was 757 yards..................is that approximate enough for ya, @Gibo

Was a great day, I know a few hunters with 308's that wouldn't have disgraced themselves and was a bloody good chance to practice at differing range
The first stage shooting from sitting messed with a few of the shooters who came with sandbags and bipods.
I'm happy with 4th in hunter class with the .260AI I was still fireforming brass for on saturday night, and only using the BDC holdover on my cheap prostaff to adjust for range. I do need to printout a chart of my ranges to hold instead of the one on my stock, a few times I found myself holding between the 2nd and 3rd dot when meant to be between 3rd and 4th

You shot well, especially with a rifle with the operating lever on the "wrong side" for ya

The operating lever is underneath, and is very ambidextrous. The lever you refer to seldom gets used when i'm hunting, usually just once
