[QUOTE="CB11WYO, post: 1003166, member: 57339"] Took the 20 BR out for some LR practice on saturday morning. Set the gongs out at 575, 725 and 915. I've shot the 20BR out to 800 before but never farther. Was curious to see how she (and I) would do. Home-labeled turret only goes to 850 so the 915 required the use of my phone and ballistics app :) 575 and 725 went smoothly both first round hits within 2-3" of the bullseye. Then we messed around with my buddies 22-250 at those distances for a while. He was there for some trigger time and we spotted for each other which was handy. After a while i grabbed the 20 and dialed up to 16 minutes as per the phone app and gave the 915 yard gong a go. First round provided a good solid thump, low of the bull. Well sweet... without making adjustments I sent another one down range, it landed just up and left from the first round. No it ain't a 10 round group or nothin' but for the coyote gun I'll take it! :D 2.25" @ over 900 yards, basically cold bore, from a lil' ol' 20 cal pill ought to do. Here yotie yotie gun) Rem 700 SA, HS Precision 26" tube, Shrewd Brake Leupold VXIII 4.5-14 20BR, 55 gr Berger @ 3500 fps [/QUOTE]
