Confirmed zero on steel at 100, then 400

Moved over for the steel at 600 meters
Checked data on my JBM Ballistics data chart that I generated for this and gave it input relative to the JBM prescription.

Five shots, five impacts.
Things are going well so far.

On many (most) scopes that I've tracked here I end up having to calculate a correction factor for the grads on the scope dials. They almost always need a correction factor.
Not this one.

This is a very simple and "mathy" setup. Set the mounts up properly and there's no chance of getting it wrong.

So cool.

FWIW, the 180gr Sierra GameKing is still going 1400fps at impact.
Although I wouldn't bet on stellar performance on game with this bullet at that distance, I wouldn't want to stand in front of this piece of kit at that distance either.
Furthermore, this isn't a top load for the rifle with this bullet weight. It's going out at about 2200fps, so within acceptable pressure considerations there's another couple hundred FPS on tap.

The old Krag is doing ok.
