[QUOTE="BlazerBeam, post: 2744544, member: 106635"] Correct the varying environmental conditions affects bullet in flight and can change what prints on a target at distance. But not considering wind (or at least having stable conditions) and having a properly stabilized bullet….a rifle doesn’t print 1/2 MOA groups at 100 yards and then magically have them open up at distance due to a rifle or load issue. If you are only speaking of the rifle and load capabilities, it is the same all the way out. You can be confident in the rifle’s precision with what you see at 100 yards. Illustrated by Litz’s shoot through targets: the 1/2 MOA groups on the 100 yard target were still 1/2 MOA when they impacted the next target at distance. The 1.5 MOA were still 1.5 MOA when they impacted the next at distance. He states that all the gibberish about a bullet “going to sleep” and all that stuff about a rifle shooting better at distance than close (or vice versa) is false. The shooter themselves may shoot better at one or the other though. [/QUOTE]
