[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 673145, member: 30902"] Can't help you out with Iowa but it might serve you well to attend one of Shawn Carlock's shooting courses. [url=http://www.longrangehunting.com/articles/defensive-edge-long-range-shooting-class-1.php]Report On Defensive Edge Long Range Shooting Class[/url] The main thing that changes for you between 500-1,000yds is wind. Depending on the terrain and weather you can have the wind change as much as 3-4 times between shooter and target at long range and so accurately doping the wind becomes incredibly difficult. If you have taken the time to work up to a good accuracy load and have a ballistics calculator the doping part is easy once you learn to read the wind. The other part which just takes a lot of practice is learning to get really steady with a consistent mount and really good discipline on the trigger. The further you shoot the more every error is magnified down range. [/QUOTE]
