just bought a new kit

[Catfish]

Rocky you have an excellant starter kit and unless you start doing alot of shooting one that will last you a life time. If you have some time on your hands now you might want to buy a good reloading manual, one with blistic charts in the back and other data, and read it in your spare time. By studing the bullet drop and the velosities of different rounds you will know more by the time you get home than most guy do that have been reloading for years. Yesterday I was shooting at a 500 yard target. I dialed in the drop and guessed at the windage, useing the chart data in the back of my Serria manual. A 3 shot group of 3 1/4 in. I was left of point of aim and alittle low, but all shots would have taken a groundhog. I really was supprised how close the chart was. I did crono my ammo so I did use the correct velosity which is critical when shooting long ranges. Wind drift on my 80 grn. .22 cal bullet was just over 15 in. and drop was 45 in. over my 200 yrd. zero. Keep your head down, we`re looking fordward to getting you home.
