Photo was taken from a blackberry
Targets are 20"x20" with a 10"x10" top.
Placed at 600 800 900 & 1000. The 1000y target is between the 800y and 900y targets. First time shooting that distance and hit the 1000y target 4/5 times! And it was with an out of the box Rem 700 VTR .308 with a 5R barrel. Optics is a 5.5-22x56 NXS MILRAD. Bullet was 175g hand loads. If I remember the dope was 11.2 mils wind 1.5 L mils.

+1 on that..

Its amazing what a stock M700 will do. I was drilling a 10"x16" plate, in 6-13MPH winds @ 800 yards today with a budget 700 and a budget nikon scope.

Keep up the good shooting.
