[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 2490840, member: 1940"] I had a my first dedicated ELR rifle built almost 10 years ago with the goal of breaking the 800 yard mark on a marmot. After a lot of shooting over the summer I climbed above timberline into a long valley above Aspen where I had been shooting for a number of years. First two shots took two marmots off the same rock pile at 750 yards. Next one I saw was looking over the top of a different boulder at 1107 yards. All I could see was his head and shoulders as he was facing me. At the shot he disappeared so I hiked over for a look. Bullet hit him center of chest and what was left was the front of a marmot with the rest of the hide empty and a mess on the rocks. Went on to make kills on marmots out to 1402 yards, elk over 1K with that rifle. Have a .300 Norma Improved build underway hoping to extend to a mile on marmots. [/QUOTE]
