[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 2084876, member: 26227"] Anything is possible, not everything is able to be done. the best twist for a 50 - 55 grain to shoot 1,000 yards is a 1:7" twist. if the shot is possible it would be with a 1:7" twist to keep stabilization at extended yardage. next the drop is mostly out of the scope at that yardage so he could be shooting without the prairie dog in his scope and it's all memory and the prarie dog is not moving. then the wind.. as a 1K yard competitor.. wind is your worst enemy and it is very unpredictable from the muzzle to the target unless you have flags/wind indicators every 50 to 100 yards. this shot this guy is claiming is not easy and should be a true accomplishment once or twice a day.. anything more is amazing.
