[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1431883, member: 85987"] You need precise turrets with good glass and a reticle that won't obscure the target. I read on here Kirby Allen shot a woodchuck or rock chuck at 2300yds with a 3x15nsx at the jamboree a bunch of years ago. That said David Tubb's son in law used a 5-25 with his dtr reticle to shoot a mile then 2011yds for the current elr record. I've watched guys shoot 4-16 S&B's to a mile. Alot depends on what type of shooting is being done. Is it a kyl target at a prs type match or a shot you can set up for and wait for your conditions to come in? Alot of the really high powered scopes don't have enough up in the turrets for ultra long range firing solutions. The 7-35 ATACR I think has 100+-moa Most of the 5-25's have 30 mils or more. Now with the tacom device you can add 20 mils and March has a 400 moa mount. Gordy Gritters built a 150moa base to shoot a 338 to 3500 yds before it was cool. [/QUOTE]
