[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1848672, member: 97414"] Factory Remington SPS sporter with 24" barrel in 308 Winchester... I had mine reaching out there to 1450 meters,,, it took 50 shots the first day for zero hits,,, the next day it took me 7 shots to get onto the 12" gong,,, 3 more hits out of 20... Ha... Ive dropped back since then to 1230 meters with much better success... Key components consist of Henery Remple F class bypod resting on 50 lb iron plate... exrta large bunny ear rear bag,,, Sightron 24 power target optic shooting Hornady 178 ELD-M's at 2630 ft-per seconds... Very challenging to pull this off with the factory stock and trigger... It's alot to do with getting set up behind the package and dry-firers before sending it,,, clean break of the crappy trigger are a must... That rifle has been replaced by a custom built Remmy that can reach way past the 1400 mark with standard case,,, Ha... It cost a few bucks to get it sorted... I'll find out this spring how it plays out... Cheers from the Fred Bragg Memorial shooting range,,, go long or stay at home... ha [/QUOTE]
