By the way, how big is your property? It looks huge!
That section is 113 acres, got 15 more across the road and 60 more across the river, the island that is directly across from the red lines.

Vortex hitting Dead-on at 30 yds

My Vortex with a Parker scope is finally dialed in. I am getting 1-2 groups at 30 yds now. I started sitting down & using a sawhorse with a cushion taped around the board. It helped dramatically. Don't think I have any problems except for me being a little shaky holding the Vortex open handed. D...
