[QUOTE="canyonman1, post: 374058, member: 16969"] My 1000 yard target is 16". If I can hit it I can hit a deer. I concentrate on 1 shot at a time, dope every 1 seperately. Recently I shot a 15 shot 10"x5" group on that 16" plate @ 1,014. At 1,500 my target is 24"x24". At 1 mile I have a 24" target painted on a 7'x7' rock I use for wind corrections before I shoot at my steel. Then I have a 24"x24" square gong and a 36"x36" square gong, side by side. If it's really windy I sight the rock till I get dialed in on the painted target, then I shoot the 36" for 20 shots and try to keep my percentage as high as possible. If it's fairly calm, I'll do the same but on the 24" gong. Closer than 1,000 yds., 10" or less.
