[QUOTE="bstomper, post: 1822187, member: 37250"] As stupid as this is going to sound, it is true. I just recently got into reloading and longer range shooting, out to 820 yards so far. I had a long learning curve with the reloading but with alot of research and help from members on this forum I believe I have a good grip on it now. With all the paper shooting out to 100 yard I have done during the learning stages, I have grown to hate shooting paper. I never could get the sub .5 moa groups that alot of you get, hell it was hard enough getting sub 1 moa groups. It was simply because I had a hard time holding the crosshairs steady on that orange dot. The other day I finally had a load for my 6.5 creedmoor that I wanted to test out at further distances, to test how good my load was. The furthest I shot that day was 700 yards. Once I had everything dialed in to where I was hitting the target center mass, I repainted the target and shot some more. I was getting 5-6" grouping, with the exception to the odd flyer. I am still very new to the long range shooting thing so my groups probably aren't that impressive to alot of you but for some strange reason I am much more comfotable, confident and steady with my shooting out to the further distances than I am at the closer ones. Seems strange but it's a problem I'm glad to have. [/QUOTE]
