[QUOTE="257 Blackjack, post: 1456346, member: 106220"] I was at one of the most esteemed shooters' in the world range a few weeks ago and my buddy was putting rounds all over an IPSC at 2000 yds with a 6XC. Yes, he missed about as much as he made impacts but we had great wind callers, great optics for spotting, and had as high quality of reloads as possible. Pick up the 338 Imp or 375 and hits were more consistent but you really don't want to shoot those rifles 100-200 times a day. [ATTACH=full]100777[/ATTACH] [U][B]Back to the point at hand -[/B][/U] I ran a WEZ hit simulator for an IPSC target at 1760 yds shooting the 215 Hybrid going 2950 fps which is a bit more efficient yielding more MV than the 230's I use to shoot out my 300 Win Mag to 1800 yds. This was with 1 mph +/- wind certainty and an ES of 12. Increasing the total wind window to vary 5 MPH the hit % falls down to 1 in five shots. Of course if you take five guys to the range some will shoot worse than this and some will shoot better. Some guys can't call wind within 5 mph, but I know multiple trophy winners, top 10 national level guys, who call it in 0.5 mph increments, shot to shot. Do able? Very much so. Fun as hell? Absolutely. [/QUOTE]
