Re: WHY DID MY GROUP OPEN UP?
Well the wind was blowing pretty good, and it was pissing me off! It was blowing in a 12:00-2:00 direction about 9-15 mph. I also shot that same day at 250 yards and averaged .60 moa with the brass that was tumbled. My windage was 1 moa at that distance.
Re: WHY DID MY GROUP OPEN UP?
My brass is in very good shape! Its been shot about 4 or 5 times. Since i have a extremly long COAL there isnt much pressure on the neck. I have not annealed the brass. I have heard a lot of people say its not really needed.
Re: WHY DID MY GROUP OPEN UP?

Re: What is the best caliber for shooting 1300 yards?
but to answer your question a 50 BMG would be a great all around choice. 338 lapua is also a good one!
Re: What is the best caliber for shooting 1300 yards?
A remington 308 with a 175 SMK moving at 2600 will stay supersonic past 1000. Probably get you to 1100 then be transonic. 1000 yards is far enough trust me, expecially if your walking it!

I just ordered a kestrel and some stuff from midway and I dont have any patients so I payed 20 bucks extra for the second day shipping. Its really amazing how fast ups works at getting your packages to you on time. I also ordered a bell &...
