I’m ready for long range

[Hoser]

Keep in mind when trying to hunt at long range...

Lets say you are pushing a 30 caliber Berger 230 (one of the highest BC 30 caliber bullets avail) around 2,900 fps.

If your range estimation is off by 15-20 yards, that means about a 10 inch bullet drop difference in just 20 yards.

If your wind estimation is off by 5 mph, that means a 18 inch difference.

I spend a lot of time shooting at long range, but I still limit myself to inside 500-600 yards to ensure a humane kill.

This,

I've shot over 8K rounds through bolt guns in 2017 in competition and practice. I've got a couple pretty solid accomplishments in long range competitive shooting, and unless conditions are perfect, I'm not going to exceed about 600 yards on an animal because I've proven to myself thousands of times, just how easy it is to miss at distance.
