[QUOTE="ricka0, post: 67658, member: 3086"] Double ditto on the Outstanding. Ez on the disappointment. My hero (my Dad) has the longest shot I've ever see (antelope at 650 yards), 30 years ago with a factory 30-06, factory 180 bullets, 25 MPH gusting winds from the side, no rangefinder, 4x scope and me acting as spotter. After one correction he got a neck shot on the 2nd try. My personal best is short 500 yards, but that's with a cheap factory gun and reloads. When I get my guns back from Kirby I hope to get closer to 1,000 yards. How does distance equate to difficulty? I would say it's a cubic function. Going from 1000 to 2000 isn't double, but 2*2*2 or 8 times more difficult - perhaps it's quartic or 16x the difficulty. <font color="red"> [b]WE REALLY NEED AN ULTRA [i]ULTRA-LONG-RANGE[/i] SHOOTING FORUM[/b] </font> [/QUOTE]
