[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2915415, member: 94556"] Actually he can do that, and has shot a Deer in the head with a Berger 407 at about 1000 yds. A 1000 yd shot under hunting conditions is actually more difficult than the same shot in an ELR competition. In ELR all that matters is that the steel target is hit. In a hunting situation what is required is a clean kill and recovery of the animal for food. The smart shooter waits for such a shot is taken under minimal or no wind conditions. Also the hunter does not have the luxury of watching other shooters take the same shot. In fact, he has been able to instruct his wife to hit a 3 mile target with our 390 gr 375SBD2 bullet at 900 foot altitude. He and his wife run Pumps Precision Rifle Training shooting school. [/QUOTE]
