Are you still using the ar-comp load? How is that comparing vs your BLC-2 load? A lot of guys seem to default to 8208-XBR.

I'm currently using the AR-Comp load, but will probably switch back to my BLC2 load soon once it warms up a little more. I've got 25#s of the BLC2 that needs to be used up, unless I decide to sell it. I'll save my 20#s of Comp until it's colder again or I run out of the other

PD-
DA = Density Altitude or whatever your atmospherics were for the day...

I'm honestly not sure. Altitude is right around 6000' and it was below freezing all day, but I don't recall the pressure

Damn you I'm jeleous!! I'm at 500-600 ft... compared to 6000 the atmosphere is like shooting through molasses..

Lol im on top a mountian compared to you rabiddawg lol 87 feet asl where im at lol couldnt admaigine shooting at the heights some of the guys on here get to shoot I would probably pass out from lack of oxygen lol.

It's difficult to find any elevation near where I'm at lower than 4400ft elevation.
We'll be at 6,600 ft at many of the places I shoot. Hunting area for elk is 9,200 ft.

Yeah, and we'd feel like we were drowning in the humidity down there where you shoot!
You seek escape from pain. We seek the achievement of happiness. You exist for the sake of avoiding punishment. We exist for the sake of earning rewards. Threats will not make us function; fear is not our incentive. It is not death that we wish to avoid, but life that we wish to live. - John Galt

Awww come on the humidity aint that bad down here, the skeeters keeping a good breeze blowing on you is all you need to stay cool lmao.

Yeah we're a little spoiled with the long range shooting around here
I typically shoot anywhere from 3500-4500' ASL, but I also shoot above 6000' quite often. It's amazing how much of a difference it makes. Probably the single best day of shooting I had was a few years ago at around 4300', but it was right after (like 20 minutes after...we had to wait out the storm) a violent thunderstorm blew through the area. Pressure was really low, absolutely no wind at any of the flags between 100 and 1000 yards...the absolute perfect day. That's the day I printed my 3.5" 3shot group at 960 yards with the Grendel |
