[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 372693, member: 22242"] You are right, Theoretically it is impossible. However The flight of a bullet is a very complex subject lots of things affect the flight path in different ways. some are variables that we can change some are not. It seems that a rifle that shoots an inch at a hundred yards would really do nothing more than deteriorate at 300 yards. Here is my theory at a hundred yards a bullet in reality is just getting out of your barrel and starting to fly and may not have had time to stabilize completely. once you start getting out to 200 or even 300 the bullet has been in the air a bit and is in its flight path and stable. and from some point in there group size begins to deteriorate. I have talked to a few Bench rest guys who never even shoot 100 yards and say 300 is a minimum for load development. There are many hours of dry reading available on the flight of a bullet to anyone who is interested. Thats my thoughts on it. I am not an expert but I know I can consistently shoot an inch anywhere between here and 300 yards... [/QUOTE]
