Revive an established thread...

I've been a handgun shooter and competitor for decades now, and about a year ago I decided to start a journey into long range rifle shooting. My "I'm getting there" litmus test was to hit the White Buffalo at the Whittington Center in New Mexico, a 6 foot by 10-foot steel target at 1121 yards.

Forget the buffalo, this last Sunday that goal was well exceeded. Here are three hits out of four shots on a less than 2.5 by 5-foot steel target at 1000 yards. Waaaaay harder than the White Buffalo. That's my shoot'n buddy Doug doing the Vanna thing to give you an idea of the size of the target.

Equipment: Custom built 6.5 Creedmoor on a Remington 700 action, 1:8 McGowen Precision Barrel, Magpul chassis, Kahles 6-24x scope.

Frontier Gun Club Hanover range. Light to medium wind blowing directly downrange.

I really liked Frontier - Hanover. Only been there once but it was a great day shooting.

Post for the old thread....I like the "twitterpated" description.
Post for the new........I only hope I can "SEE" the target at 1000 yards.

I had a DE50. It was always an attention getter on the range. You start shooting it and everyone else stops to see what you are shooting.

Missed the first go 'round.

Oh my stars and garters.

That is a classic quote!
