    He said 60 on the scope and hold 3 for the elevation. If he was talking MOA, that's roughly 70 inches of drop for 1 mile with the Lapua.

    Yes, I'm speaking in MOA.

    Wasn't completely sure you didn't mean mils. If you were the shooter, that was a helluva shot. The way you spun that elevation turret you look entirely comfortable on those long shots. I've only shot as far as 1100 with an AR 6.5 Grendel and it has quite a bit more drop at 1100 than the Lapua had at a mile, (go figure, lol). I'd say all in all, 6 feet of drop is pretty damn flat for that far out. Were you a DM in the military, or scout/sniper maybe?
