[QUOTE="Roughrice, post: 2835385, member: 118657"] Just like many of you high volume shooters… I get bored with my bench rifles shooting steel every weekend. That’s why I try to make some fun and occasionally bring the hunting rifles to do the hunting scenario shooting. My range has 100 yd to 800 yd then skips to 1000, then 1330, then the loooong one… 1750 yds. I always try to help the guys that are interested in shooting long range. True story- Once, a couple of guys went to a long range shooting school, bought a rifle that has had load development done included with the package and came here bragging how good the rifle and the LR Ballistic Rang-finder combo and is. I said “show me”. They hit the 600 plate 50% of the time and hit 1000 once in 5 shots. They blamed the ammo. I then pulled out my 6.5-284 hunting rifle and dialed 600, bang, dialed 1000, bang. They put the rifles in the truck and left. Practice, practice, practice [/QUOTE]
