ty seems like everytime i get a chance to try pushing the grendel as far as i can its always a day with 10-20 mph winds , another week or so and things should start calming down wind wise here and i can push out to 1500 like i want to

There was a gunzine writer who shot ELR at 2:00 AM when the air was calm.
Had to rig illumination for target and firing line, of course.

even late at night they will still be 10-12mph i think im just used to it now lol
im going to push back to 1350/1400 this week at some time and see what i can do , i think thats about going to be the limit with the atn scope atleast on the grendel , ive done 1 mile with it on the creedmoor already , might have to go back to my glass scope .
need to buy an adapter for it so i can record video threw it

Good shooting.
Must take a while to change targets.
