[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 52263, member: 25"] We tend to focus on hot-rod calibers, tack-driving rifles and state of the art optics. I believe for many guys the toughest part of long range shooting is finding a suitable place to shoot. Access, safety and suitable distance for targets are major considerations and they don't necessarily come easy. We drive about 30-35 miles to our spots, usually hauling our gear and several hundred pounds of steel targets and frames. We have to worry about roads and trails since rain prevents access, as well as cattle and even the length of the grass. Yesterday we went out to shoot and recent rains had caused the **** grass to grow so much that we could not see our target location. Fortunately we could set-up at another nearby location but we found out that tall grass puts an end to prone shooting. I would be interested to hear how good, or tough, some of you guys have it for your LR shooting locations. [/QUOTE]
