[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 72430, member: 2852"] Well, we had to teach them about the angle the bullet is coming down at at that range (they were kinda shocked to learn that the bullet wasn't still flying flat at 900 yards) and we also had to teach them about MOA. We explained that a suspended 2" target at 900 yards with no backer is the equivalent MOA target of hanging an Advil tablet with monofilament at 100 yards with no paper behind it to see where you missed. They also learned that the most accurate guns in the world shoot between .1-.3" aggregates at 100 yards so when you expect that kind of accuracy at 9 times that distance, it really just becomes an element of dumb luck if the dynamite is hit. Anyways, I am going to print off a copy of this thread and email it to the organizers and see if we can't get a few things changed for the better for the November shoot.
