[QUOTE="Greg Duerr, post: 985780, member: 32685"] Some times Im totally lost when it come to Long Range shooting and reloading...............At first I kind of got blasted when you guys talked about shooting at 1000yds and I thought Yey Right!! and voice my opinions.......Then last week at the range I was shooting next to a guy with a Custom 300 Weatherby Mag 28" #7 barrel and a Night Force Scope He was shooting at the 1000 yd target and I was thinking I wonder if he is hitting that ............to my surprise he asked if I wanted to try a few shots. Well I was shocked with that Night Force Scope The 1000yd target looked like I was standing next to it and I put three shots into an easy kill zone for a Deer...........I was blown away. The trigger on that rifle was set at 12oz another new experience. I'm a firm believer now that with the right equipment that 1000yds is not an issue. Of course it was dead calm that day, but My eyes were opened. One day when I find the right powder and load for my .243 AI I can start trying to shoot past 200yds...............I did buy a nice Leica RF and did have Leupold install a CDS turret on my scope ............its a start For me if it was not for the Help and advice from you guys on this sight I would have gone back to my 22 Hornet and started shooting ground squirrels at <100 Thanks for your help and patience.
