I had just made a nice shot on a Starling at 78 yards from this plastic grape bin, with 18.1 grain Exacts doing 36 FPE, when I decided to try a field expediant postion at my target frame which I lased at 152 yards. My stock dope was for 31 FPE, so I estimated and dialed in 30 MOA. The target is just over the far corner of the 6 wheel Polaris' bed, the wind sock is just to the left of the target.

I held 10 inches for the 5 mph wind which turned out to be a over correction.

5 shots into 2.6 inches the lowest shot sort of ruined the group but for no bags or bipod, just holding the rifle in my hands, I will take it.

View from the target stand back up the hill to the plastic grape bins. The bins are in the center of the photo.
