Just getting into it and can see this being very addictive. The sporting clays range south of my place has up to 850 range in place. I've yet to go there and try, trying to master 500 yds first. With the topography on my farm its tough to get a range. I finally got a 500 yd target set across from my house. This entailed glassing across the creek bottom to the far ridge and finding a place where the there is enough gap in the trees for a clear line of sight. Distance was figured using the onX hunt ap.
I'm shooting a 6.5 CM Browning x-bolt with 22" barrel. Shooting factory Hornady 140eldm at 2710 fps. With the Hornady ballistic ap and entered data, it states 8.6 moa adjustment. After several attempts and misses I've determined that 11.5 moa is the key. I got the steel plate hit before the wind got wild.
Has anyone used the ballistic app? If so, is it accurate?
Looking for some advice and experiences.
