[QUOTE="coop2564, post: 1577714, member: 87214"] Curious how others shoot at distance compared to 100yds. I seem to almost always shoot better at distance, theory says if you shoot 1" at 100yds you should be roughly 8" at 800yds. Yet I do much better usually, Saturday with my 270w Xbolt with 150gr Berger VLD's. I checked zero and both groups were about .75" and .875 at 100yd, at 500yds first group was 2.5" 2nd was 2.25", at 800yds 4.125" and 4.75" all were only 3 shot groups. How often do you shoot better at distance than 100yds says you should. I think I must concentrate better when extending the range. conditions were perfect less than 5mph wind at my back, 45 degrees. Then finished with 10rds on 4" steel at 500yds. Sure makes you walk away feeling good lol. [/QUOTE]
