Man this is FUN!!

Wow the weather has been so nice lately. Been making a few matches and getting in some good practice. Got the home range really nicely set up. Fresh paint, a few new steels, and targets out to 950.

Really looking forward to the Quigley Match! I have a new Shiloh 45-90 coming and hopefully it will be delivered at the Q...not in time for the match but it will still be nice to join the ranks of the elite that own a genuine Shiloh!. So the Old Frankin-Soli will have to do for this year.

Been doing my daily practice and boy the old sharps with a new fast-twist John King barrel, BACO money bullet and 2f Olde E is really starting to look promising.

Wow does that fast twist send that Money straight! It put 4 shots that you could cover with your hand at the Billings 700yrd buffalo, shot a AAA shilouette in Missoula and I managed a 290 midrange score with it in Butte... during a snow storm. Then fell on my face at the Butte Shilouette..lol (but it was still fun!)....If I could just stop flinching I may actually hit a chicken this year

Was shooting yesterday with a 25mph+ wind and only had in 1 1/2 min windage at 350yrds with the Money..was hoping to save my expensive 16:1 alloy so I loaded some of my 400gr bullets to try and added 7 1/2min of wind and was still off in the field way right of the target Guess I'll not get in much practice with the lighter bullets

It always feels good when a fella gets a load to working good.

freedom,
a 10 mph wind at 3 0r 9 o clock will deflect a bpcr bullet about 2 moa at 100, and more than 3 times that at 350.
25 mph will deflect it more than twice as much at 100.
this would suggest your wind was going pretty well close to 6 or 12 o clock, assuming your deadwind zero is true.
it is interesting to compare elevation settings in different wind directions. keeping a book of this over the years starts to show some interesting data.
keep safe,
bruce.
