[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1549243, member: 85987"] For me a good es is 10 for 5 shots in my lightweight hunting rifles. Anything target it is single digit for 10-20 shots depending on what kind of course of fire. Most on here that actually shoot long will have low single digit sd's that are repeatable if you follow solid reloading practices. There use be a loads page that has been removed most likely due to people not working up to the data posted. With today's advancements in being able to get good velocities in any situation 25fps really isn't acceptable. I get better than that from a bunch of different rifles with a bunch of different box ammo. Most of what is typed about dumping an animal at 1500yds is just type on a screen. The person stating it usually has no idea and he heard it from someone else. There are guys on here that regularly shoot beyond 2000yds. I'm not one of them. You should start a thread or ask Len to write and article about the finer points of reloading to create the load to shoot extreme long range. I don't own a single rifle that will stay supersonic beyond a mile at my altitude of 15' above sea level [/QUOTE]
