Picked up a Christensen Ridgeline 6.5-284 for the fiance' as she wants to get in the woods. Having a reloading room, I dialed in a load over 3 trips... Settled on the Berger 156EOL's, Lapua Brass and Retumbo powder...

100 yard 3 shot group:


Load data ES/SD was looking good:


Quick test at 425 yards, 2 shot group..


Then took it out to 745 yards and shot the 4 shot group in the middle of the 10" steel plate.


Guns ready for her to practice a little more and hopefully get her a chance at a buck on the East side and one of those longer shots...

The long range game has been my new obsession, sort of racked the rods and moved over to dinging still further than the naked eye can see....
