Sounds like fun. Just look up the trajectory info on your ammo, if you can find it.
That way you wont be going in totally blind.
 
I downloaded an app for that, Shooting Solutions. It seems to be pretty good.

Plug in the projectile, ballistic coefficient (I found it on the manufacturers website), velocity, zero range and the scopes height above the bore and it will store that profile. Then enter distance, wind speed and direction and it calculates the drop and drift.

Where is this 700 yard range? I'd love to find a long distance range near me.
 
well we had a change of plans did not get to go 700 yard range there was a issue with the man that owns it so we just shot at a different 100 range so be it

If I ever save up enough pennies to buy some glass well have to compare. mine hasn't left the box yet, poor thing. but im interested to see how you like it once you get to stretch your legs
 
My neighbor finally got his rifle but in 6.5 CM. You will really enjoy it. Once we got it sighted in and found the dope we were shooting 4-5 inch groups at 800 yards! And with factory ammo too!. Simply an amazing machine.
