Took me 8 shots.... I did tons of work 200-600 range to figure out the scope. After I hit 600 10 times in a row, I told my Dad we should move back to 1000 before it gets too dark to shoot. Hit it on the 8th shot. Handed my Dad the gun and told him which line I used to hit the target and he hit it on the 13th try. It was awesome. I have the LR bug now bad.....

Awesome!

Thank god this wasn't a post about hitting 1000 posts.
congrats on a hell of a shot.

Congrats!

Great job!
