				New Target at "The Spot"?

				I went shooting at "The Spot" today.
There is a round, red steel target, along a path about 50 yards to the right and a little above our 1k target.
I seems to be about 1300 yards out (based on dope I dialed up) my LRF won't pick it up.
Is this ours or did someone else set it up?

				It's closer to 1205 yards. It was brought out a few weeks ago. Apparently it had been hiding behind a bush for quite a while.

When we were shooting at it 2 weeks ago the wind switched from a right-to-left wind at 1000 to a left-to-right wind at 1200. It was crazy!! People were holding their 1000 wind holdover at 1200 and their shots were hitting out of the FOV of my scope lol

				I got a wild hair and went up this AM after work from about 8:30 - 10:30.
80F and about 2-3 mph wind. It was great!

				We were looking at about 100 degrees and 20mph winds. We didn't hit it to many times.

				Bruno put that red target out there originally about a year ago.

I remember that, I think it was made of plastic (could be wrong) you asked him "how will we know if you hit it"

It's a plastic 5 gallon bucket lid.
