New 2,000 Meter Range In Grande Prairie Alberta - Show Interest?

[jimbo14]

Now you have me looking at my optics to see if I'd even have the elevation to make it that far.

I ran out of turret just short of a mile with my slow speed 6GT (2775 fps). Ended up in the reticle to get my hits.

My 300PRC runs faster. Going for beyond 2K this summer in Alberta. Your post made me check…

I’d use all my turret and most of my reticle to hit 2000m.

I think I need a faster node. lol!

I have routinely shoot out to 1200 yds with Winchester .308 but conditions have to be very good . Also Fairly large plate 42" x 56" and very happy when the Caldwell Flash Bang Green Lights light up .
169 gr Sierra match King as well as 168 gr Match Kings at 2770 fps . Have had Zero luck as yet at 1420 yds . Close but no Cigar
Got this off the Net. - Bullets traveling below roughly 1,100 feet per second (FPS) are considered subsonic. As the bullet hits the transonic region (roughly Mach 1.2 or 1,340 fps down to 1,100 fps), it can become unstable and experience higher dispersion.
So my Winchester .308 load stays above super sonic out too 1077+ then its wobble wobble . l0l

Try a different bullet, something better balanced. The 168's are the worst balanced 30 cal bullet. They have a long nose and a fat bum.

I've been using both the 155gr Scenar as well as the 208 AMAX. Both are long and "skinny" shaped projectiles with a better weight distribution. Interestingly, even though the go about it in different ways, they both end up going transonic at nearly the same distance..

I am not against change but I am not changing what has been successful for me .
Have fired 175 copper and I would say they are ok but have not developed loads for them .
Yes the 168 are kind of like the chubby girl at the high school dance
On the other hand the Sierra 169"s are a lot more ###y, like the cheerleader .
