For reference, over that distance energy fell from around 1750 ft-lbs at the muzzle, to 250 ft-lbs at the target. Which, while a lot, is still about the same energy as a police-issued .38 special fired right there.
TY guys , i still cant belive i got my hits with the monster match bullets as they are nowere near as good shooting as the eld-m's i normally shoot
i have all the data ill grab it here in a bit but iirc something like 750fps and 200 ish ftlbs at 1506, i need a spotter when i move it back to 1 mile this week its going to be way to hard to see that gong moving threw the scope , or ill have to take one of my gopros and put it up near the gong , i need more sunlight too i was using 40 power on the scope and it gets to blurry in low light , i can take that scope upto 54x
