That shot hit a couple inches low. The can was holed by something, and knocked down. Looks like a chunk of sod flew off, and landed about 25 feet to the right and behind. The first two shots were clean misses high. Range was 216 yard or so. Rifle was a Dream Season with a 2X-7X scope. Load was 300g XTP, 110g Blackhorn, black crush rib sabot, W209 primer. The next shot at a fresh can, hit kinda low centered

216 yards. That's a small target from that range.

Nice shooting.

IMO: Hitting anywhere near a soda pop can at 216 yards is darn good shooting.
