Shooting at a milk jug at 1760 yard (1 mile) with 15x scope, reasonable?

[QUOTE="CA48, post: 1282474, member: 21446"] I set up a milk jug a little over 2400 yards a few years back, can't remember the exact distance, but anyways was using a Sightron SIII 6-24x50. Rifle was my 338 Edge imp. and to get all the elevation needed I dialed everything I had and turned the scope down to 6x to quadruple my moa reticle value to hold over and get the elevation required to make the shot. I have good vision and had no problem placing the reticle on the jug and was able to spot most of my shots as well. Like some one already mentioned glass quality is more important than high scope magnification. I'm trying to sell 2 of my SIII's at a good price right now just haven't put them in the classifieds yet PM me if your interested. [/QUOTE]
