It got up to 55 today, but the spring winds came along with the warmer weather. I got outside for one card between anodizing runs.

I measured the wind for a few minutes and got between 9 and 16 mph. There were some much heavier gusts a few times as I shot. I avoided those. You can see my first few sighters on the left side and the drift before I began holding off. Most holds were from 6 ring to the edge of target box. The tricky part was the vertical. It burned me a few times.

A 245 9x at 25m in this wind is probably pretty good...but I shot it at 50y. For 50...I’m super pleased. 42gr slugs
