[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1282462"] This is such a complicated question. I answered distance in the poll. To me, "Long Range" is when turret twisting is required but is within the reach of "normal" turret range. As in say a 20MOA rail and turrets to the top. To me, "Extreme Long Range" has multiple aspects. Beyond reach of "normal" turret range, requiring extreme offset scope mounting like 40, 60MOA or more to gain elevation adjustment in the turret and perhaps using more hold over. Add to that the Trans-Sonic to Sub-Sonic factor and wind over +1000 yard distances. But then. is +300 yards with a 22LR "Extreme Long Range" for the 22LR? I saw a 6.5CM make a hit at 2080yards. By my book that is extreme. For my 338 Edge or the 338 SnipeTac there that day is it? 2080 was in the TS/SS range so is that "extreme"? I'm a baby at the actual shooting beyond 1000. [/QUOTE]
