[QUOTE="Ranger Rick, post: 1910244, member: 111184"] Some more clarification - The World Record 5-shot group at 1,000 yards is a 1.068” group with 0.102 MOA. It was shot by Mike Wilson in 2018. Picture attached. Wilson has competed in International Benchrest Shooters (IBS) for 14 years and has held four IBS records. Joel's #9 Post has a picture of the Ballistic-X apps showing a 1.13” Group with a 0.10MOA at 1101 yards. That is within 0.062" of the world record world (within 62 thousandths of the world record), and his picture exceeds the world record. Joel says he will replicate the shooting, yet he admits the posted targets were not shot by him. We don't need to go to him. Joel or Keith should have their shooting skills verified by a neutral competitive shooter. That is a good way to market your world record capable product. At 1,000 yards Hornady factory 140gr 6.5 Creedmoor HPBT ammo drops 316" or 26.33 feet. If a shooter's angle of elevation changes by a mere 1/10 of a degree at the muzzle (not unlikely with a Harris bipod and rear pad), the Point of Impact at the target at 1,000 yards changes 21 inches. When someone shows pictures and numbers that rival a world record, there is nothing wrong with questioning him. That is why competition and world records require verification. [/QUOTE]
