    I am just curios, how many of you can hit 1,000 yards? I want to get back to some distance shooting this year and was wondering how many of you are shooting past 600 and what are reaching out with?

    Caliber, not glass.

    Don't mean to hijack your thread, but this seems to be relevant. (at least to me)

    Depends on the target size...

    What Hoser said... Some of my best shooting was when I was about 14yrs old, using my Dad's 1903A3, shooting at a trash can lid sized rock well over 700yds. I became a believer of the '03. Nowdays, I can honestly say....'what target?' because I can't see for squat due to prolonged computer work.

    With a .308 I can if the wind cooperates ... With enough ammo I can hit anything eventually

    And how much wind is blowing.

    There are a whole bunch of us here who shoot out to and beyond 1K. Last fall, three of us shot a mile (1760 yards).

    My 7 year old daughter can hit a 14" plate at 1k. I seen her do it with a 6.5 Creedmoor. Only took her 4 shoots. Would have been less if she would have got better wind calls from the spotter.

    That is impressive! I'm with Aadvaark,,, What target? Lol.
    I might have to go shooting with you distance guys this year. I was on the battalion rifle team when I was the 10th MTN and was pretty good, but we still used muskets then.

    You could try the T3 match too. Weldona CO, 2nd Saturdays. Stage 1 is 5 targets from 1130y - 1350y!

    And yes these matches are a lot of fun!
    If your post count is higher than your round count, you are a troll.
