WOW!! Beautiful setup there!! I’m slowly drawing my wife into shooting… she will go out occasionally so long as we’re not out very long, I feel she will come around in time…

I’m just curious, what was the elevation of the location where this shooting took place. I’m trying to show that while a 168 may become unstable at altitudes close to sea-level, (at 1,000 yards) they do not destabilize as quickly at higher elevations. All my long range shooting is above 3,500 feet elevation, and the wood that is mounted behind the metal plate has not shown any key holing effects.
Thanks!
