[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 988736, member: 63748"] [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]Books and videos are a great investment for the return. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Applied Ballistics has a variety available and my personal preference. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Schools are additionally a great investment for return. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]The last in order for recommendation would be to purchase a rifle specifically for long range only without understanding how to get from point A to point B. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Hence the first two recommendations first. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]If practical, purchase a rifle that can be used for a variety of hunting situations, one that is easy to learn and reload, and one that is cheap on the pocket and shoulder. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Afterward, when the bug settles in, explore expansion with the associated costs and goals in mind.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]Just my perspective working with many folks wanting to venture down this trail. [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]Too often I’m “told” the comment, “I want to be able to shoot an animal over 1000 yards.” [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Simple question back, “How do you plan to get there?” [/SIZE][SIZE=3]This is usually [/SIZE][/FONT][FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]followed by a blank look. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]You’re on the right path. [/SIZE][SIZE=3]Learn and make the wise investments before breaking the bank and the often too fast unrealistic expectations.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
