Hell, that's pretty solid!

The wind was light, but it kept changing. My first guess at elevation was pretty damn close (total wild-assed guess), I just had to play with the wind, since it was changing pretty much constantly. Was a pretty cool moment in my life, truth be told.

That is pretty cool actually! Says that you are comfortable with the gun/caliber. Do you recall roughly what your hold over was?

Very nice rifle pookie. I want to ask a question about the acog. I'm sure there's a reason for it and anyone who knows feel free to answer.

Why is the base of the acog not further forward on the upper receiver? I'm sure you have a purpose, but I was just wondering.

where i have it gives me the best field of vision
further it would be a bit hard for me and wouldnt be optimal
i guess its just personal preference

I believe this pic was shot by Texas1911. I have neither the equipment, nor the skills to shoot good pictures.

Further to what pookie already said, because the ACOG is a magnified optic, it does not have unlimited eye relief like a red dot sight.
