[QUOTE="Highbrass Shooter, post: 2948220, member: 128114"] I know this is stupid question, lack of knowledge not idiocy, but don’t want to invest in LR shooting anymore then I have if I’m gonna fail before I start. I have quite few sub moa and few 1/4moa group loads for 300rum and 7 rem mag at 250yds with hunting bullets not LR ELR target bulllets. 25+yrs hand loading and yes I count my flyers, 3 shot and 5 shot groups. If 3clover leaf no need shoot 5 my opinion at 250yds I’ve never had opportunity to shoot at 500-1000 but believe I have the equipment, 20 moa bases, good optics, shooting skill, what I believe handloads that are good enough? If i can get 1/4moa from Speer grand slams for example , I’m certain I can produce that or better with Berger or other LR projectiles etc. Never bought expensive target bullets, just not what I was jnto. I’ve never traveled to ELRranges, or LR Classes. Kentucky it’s practically non existent that I’ve found, cept kne farm I got permission1700yds, 1400 safely and day before I was gonna shoot had 15 landowners people wanted to do it to so I bailed. Figured it would be insanely distracting and unorganized. Didn’t figure there was time for all that no one else was gonna bring targets, wanted to shoot my steel. Rowdy bunch, I’m rowdy too just not when I’m trying to accomplish something. Just asking for feedback on baseline “good enough” I believe I’m well above baseline by my extensive but limited research YouTube, forums etc. i know of spin drift, correalis affect depending on shooting direction, reading wind, drop tables etc. I have done my research, estimated research. Main reason I joined this forum! [/QUOTE]
