Hi all,
Im new to the long range shooting game. I have hunted since i was about 5-6, so i know i can shoot effectively at game inside 200-300 yards. I have a remington 700vs in .308. It holds half inch or better groups, small clover leaf, at 100yards as long as i do my part. I have a simple bushnell 3x9x50 scope, just crosshairs. I also reload hunting ammo and have for about 2 years.
My questions are these :
What are some pointers, using my current setup, for engaging targets out to 600-700 yards? Are there any particular bullets\weights that i should look at? What should i realistically expect as far as group size? I shoot about 100 rounds a month, but mostly between 100-200 yards.
I know those are pretty open ended questions, but i do appreciate any answers given.
Thanks,
Matt
