[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 1127671, member: 74902"] Have a Savage Model 12 in 300 WSM that will take out milk jugs at 800 yards easy. That is with its McGowen Savage prefit barrel on it though. Have that barrel off now and have a stock Savage magnum contour 300 WSM barrel on it for carry hunting. I was shooting milk jug size rocks with it at 500 yards last week. Also a Savage LRP in 6.5 Creedmoor that is very accurate at long range. Really don't have a place or need to shoot to 1000 and I think at some point the quality of the load worked up for the rifle comes into play. Savage makes some very accurate LR rifles. They have a whole line of target rifles for 1000 yard F Class and such. They are utilitarian rifles; they are missing the craftsmanship that shows with a full custom rifle. They make wonderful practice rifles though. [/QUOTE]
