Well that's surely close enough to be called a hit considering a skeet is what, 3.5"?

haha great, now im gonna be setting skeet up and useing them for targets. Thanks for the idea!

Ive hit targets out at 1000 or so with a M-16A3. It was in Iraq from an overwatch position so it was perfectly clear. We implied a lot of kentucky windage haha.

Awesome!!!!
What caliber? i was gonna guess .270 but thats not much powder for a 130gr bullet.

Took my stevens .223 out just a lil further yesterday, got a crow at 275yds. Shooting Tula steel case cheap stuff

Missed a dang crow a lil over 1000yds Saturday with my 300wm. It had just got thru raining so i went up the road to see what was in the fields. A bazillion crows flew from the fields close to the road out toward the tree line so i parked my truck on the other side of the road and eased over the road (road is raised above the fields) and spotted the nearest crow. The tree line is 1140yds and i guess it to be roughly 1000yds maybe 1050yds. Pulled the bipod down and crawled over till i could see it thru the scope. Held over about 7mils and let it fly. Bullet hit about a foot over the crow
Atleast it scared them off

Same .270 that I killed the woodchuck with. 150 gr Sierra BTSP and 54 gr Hogdon 4831. Shot from the prone position over a log. The deer was on the other side of a valley. It paced 725 steps but it was downhill and uphill. It was more like 600 yards. The deer dropped like a rock. The bullet severed the spinal cord at the top of the shoulder. I had overestimated the range and the bullet struck a bit high.
