Thanks. Yessir it is, we hit a range on the way out to the hunt that has target frames at 100/200/300 and steel out to 600yd. I wanted to do a final confirmation on my windage/elevation zero at 300yds (it was spot on). I sent one at the mule deer steel at 500yds and in a borrowed spotting scope the mark appeared about 1.5" off my aim point (excellent), I then engaged the gopher target next to the deer (likely 4-6" wide and maybe 10" tall I suspect) and rattled that one as well. At that point I went into the hunt feeling quite comfortable with my current data/load. Luckily fortune shined on me to have that fella wander out while I was glassing.
