[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 149140, member: 12"] Good rule of thumb to remember. Take your normal (not best ever shot but what you can do for 5 shots day in day out in all conditions at 100) group size and double it for the average 5 shot group at 1000. If you have a .75 MOA gun with 5 shots at 100, you can bet that an average of ten 5 shot groups at 1000 will be around 15". Sure one might be 8" and then one might be 22" just as well. We shoot factory class at 1000 and our match guns normally work out the same. My 1k BR 300 WSM will be in the .2 at 100 all day long, yet at 1000 the norm is 6"-7" with a 5.1" for 10 shots last weekend. At the end of the day, work your way back with consistent hits, but **** few guns and shooters can hit a 10" pie plate consistently first shot at 1/2 mile and then repeat it. BH [/QUOTE]
