It finally stopped raining here long enough for me to go to the range yesterday. Tried the 270 WSM with the Barnes 110 grainers over 67.3 grains of Hunter powder. Man those bullets were screaming! Averaged 3559 fps with a top velocity of 3604! Didn't improve groups though, so I think I'll cut back a couple of 1/10s.
Also used the ranging target that I developed so I know how far an animal is when I look at it through my scope. If you want to know how this works, go to the home page, click on the "Long Range Shooting" link. You can read 5 articles which I wrote on the subject, or go directly to the link on "How to Determine Distance of Long Range Shots".
Anyone else doing any range work at this time?
