First real outing with my new 300WSM. Previously sighted in at 50 metres at an indoor range to purely establish a wind zero. Had a rough idea of velocity so threw together two loads to run at 600 metres. Stage 1 shot a 60.8 (60.10 max possible), grouping about 3.7 inches. This stage was tighter, shooting a 66.9 (66.11 max possible) and grouping at 3 inches. Targets are electronic Hexta targets. I took 1st place in both stages and the overall aggregate for the day (scored a Christmas ham and turkey for my trouble!). You can also see rain start to fall towards the end of the shoot too.
