[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 133883, member: 8843"] So is this long range club thing based on just your word if you actualy made the shot at such a remarkable range. I can see making a 2000yd shot with a hot 338 cal or other hot 7mm 30 cal with super high bc bullet like the 200gr wildcat and so on. I just have a little trouble swallowing a 2200yd shot with a 300WSM and 210gr berger bullets!! 1) the 210 will drop from supersonic (less than 1000fps)at around 1900yds , lets just say that it doesn't get unstabill and holds its speed to maybe 800fps at 2200yds that amkes for almost 300ftlbs of energy , I'm pretty sure that the berger would not have opened up much if any at all so you have simply poked a .308" hole into a pretty tough tenations critter which I'm sure it took a pretty good while to die from that wound , time enough for him to have gotten to a hole in the time it took you to cover 2000+yds. 2) I like Kirby wasen't aware of any non military ranging equiptment that would read much past 1500yds accuratly with only one shot. I'd have to have been their and seen it with my own eyes to believe that story. Kinda like the guys thats shoot 3000yds or some such with a 308 and 240gr SMK , I'd just have to see that one for myself. Kirby , if a guy was to shoot a deer that was allowed because of CDP tags would that count as a varmint? Also is the 50 bmg allowed in this contest? [/QUOTE]
