12 MOA for a bull!
On Sunday afternoon in a match at 600yds we plotted out 12moa left wind to get to the bull & scored Bull / V in between gusts at 11.5moa! Thats a six foot deviation! - Is that a record?

We tend to give bulls a wider berth than that...

Re: 12 MOA for a bull!
at WMS a couple of years ago, I was holding 12 or so feet to the right at 5-600 yrds! (.223) windy much?
Re: 12 MOA for a bull!
well thats about 24 MOA! but at 600yds with a 556/223 head coming in at 60 grains that's darned windy but poss still not quite as much as 12 moa on a 155 grain 308? at about 8 moa the flags stop showing any difference & you have to take into account the bend in the pole! aaargghkennyc wrote:at WMS a couple of years ago, I was holding 12 or so feet to the right at 5-600 yrds!
