I still have about 6 weeks till my elk hunt but work is getting so busy that I thought I would take advantage of an invite to go the the range the other day and sight in my MLer. The load I'm using this year is a 300 Shockwave over 110gr of 777 2F. This load is averaging about 1850fps. I have it sighted in 1" high at 100 yards. Withmy scopes ballistic reticle and this sight in I am point and shoot to about 150 yards, first aim point down is good for 200 yards, next is 250 and the next is 300. I don't plan on shooting that far but it retains 1000+fpe until about 325 yards at this alltitude. Shots 1 and 2 of my 3 shotconfirmation group were touching, shot 3 I pulled but still managed a 1.25" group. I think that will do.

The guy I went to the range with was sighting in his new CVA Electra. His load was 150gr of 777 pellets and a 270 Platinum Powerbelt. His load averaged just under 2100fps and shot about 1" at 100 yards. He also tried 100gr of pellets and it shot almost exactly 3" low to the 150 load and about 1800fps. Unfortunately for me he finished shooting about the same time I did and had put his gun up before I realizedI hadn't got to shoot it. He said maybe next time since we both had to get going. I was impressed with the guns accuracy but it's not any more accurate than mine and it took him about as long to load and shoot as it did me. I didn't see any huge advantage in the system, just different in a couple of steps. I still want to shoot it just to say I have.
