[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 947923, member: 30902"] If you know your drops and wind dope 600yds is not a big deal IF you have the basic marksmanship skills and equipment to shoot 1" groups at 100yds. I never shot beyond 500yds before going into the service but I have a friend who was making 800-1,000yds shots long ago who was completely self taught. He had the advantage of lots of trigger time and being a naturally gifted shooter who dedicated himself to becoming the most proficient long range marksman possible. This was back in the 70's-80's before the "Long Range Rage" and when such shots were all but unheard of. He bought every book he could get his hands on, started reloading, and sought out well known LR shooters all over the country for help and advice. The amount of information accessible with a few keystrokes today on the subject is utterly amazing. If you have the talent, the equipment, and the skills you can get it done with basic marksmanship and a range card. [/QUOTE]
