    Just ran the quick numbers on a target at 4400 with my 375 CT. At that distance I need 133.4 Mils of elevation, at a 10 mph 3 oclock wind you would need to hold 4.3 mils. This is the intersting part:
    Time of flight is 13.058 sec
    Max Ordinance (the highest point the bullet reaches during the shot) 782.33 ft
    over all drop works out to 1927.5ft

    With how fast the winds change in a place like Kansis even geting impacts at that distance is a challange with the amount of flight time alone you are dealling with. At 16 rounds sent to get animpact is not bad at all. I believe the target was between 1 and 2 moa they are using, i will double check and let you know.

    cheers

    According to my computations my 205 moa equals 60 mils.

    So not even close for my setup.

    There are a couple of 1000 yard DCRA ranges. Other limited access ranges are on military bases, and can be infinite as long as the template fits and Range Control will let you!

    The Saskatchewan Provincial Rifle Association Range has 1100 and 1200 firing points. From the shoulder of the grid road to the targets is 1640 yds (IIRC). Not a full mile but that is where the backstop sits in relation to the grid road.

    I'd just take my chances waving my glock out the window as I drive up to the target... Could probably get it in 16 shots, too.

    Nice shooting!

    Damn good achievement. Most of the 'crying' i hear is coming from folks who are not pushing their limits?

    In any case, love the truck mounted shooting position. Makes me yearn for spring gopher season!

    Congrats. That is a fair piece of distance. I would assume you were shooting West to East to minimize rotational forces??

    Don't miss... I won't...
