Thread: 5shot cold bore 600yards

While at the f class in ashburton i had a chance to check dope on my new(to me) tikka 260rem with ahtlon Midas TAC 4-16 at 600yards. Zeroed it the week before. Rough data showed 3.8mil to dial so dialed 4.0 and held center with 8-12km wind from 3oclock. I pulled the last shot a bit but still good enough for a crappy tikka t3.

Gotta be happy with that, those Athlon's offer great performance for the money eh.

I run an Ares BTR 4.5-27x50 on my 28 Nosler. Wouldnt mind a Midas Tac too actually. Where did you source yours? Mine came in from the US.

How the heck do you get all that in that digital (not sure the term ) format and to scale so app or what ever can give you all that info with group size etc .

The target board is the electronic target used at the range and group overlay is range buddy app. target is normally like this

Electronic target ? how does that work ?

Range Systems like this

Shit I’m in the dark ages I never new that shit existed

range buddy is handy and easy to use, make sure to input distance and scale before doing anything else.

Yip, my first experience with this was about four months ago. This was my first outing with a new-to-me 6mmBR at 600yds.

I was asking whether the recorded velocities would be OK to use for ladder testing but was advised the recorded velocities may not be accurate enough at the 600yd range to do use for load developement.
