I was told in another thread it was Federal Match but the video shows Center X. Different people, same target? *It was also 1004 yards so I assume it was the same target.
First off, I have a few questions? How are they measuring "10 feet behind the target" or "5 feet in front of the target" when I didn't see anybody out there with a measuring tape?
Also, I've shot with 17HMR to 300 yards and ring is just barely able to be heard. What thickness and type of steel is that?
sweet setup by the way

That’s amazing. looked like a perfect day to try it.
also, I’ve never heard someone describe a miss as “behind the target”, and not left, right, high or short. Is that because it’s coming in like a mortar?

Which is what makes this impressive.
I was out of the weekend plinking at 460m and ran out of elevation and hold. Going another 500m I would have to add triple the hold.
@Pond skipper what was your data ? Temp, DA, velo, DOPE, etc. Love to compare notes.
According to Vudoo's Instagram page, AJ was using a Charlie TARAC, Lapua X-ACT and 113.5 mils to get on target.
I don't know him, just passing along the info that may help someone. I don't even understand what a Charlie TARAC is or how it works.

Spotter was down range and the hits you were hearing were coming from the spotter and shooter being on the phone with each other and it was picked up by the mic in the camera. For every 5 yards at that range it needs a whole extra mil of elevation, ammo used was Lapua Xact
AJ has worked really hard to understand the science behind what it takes to hit at over 1000 with a 22LR. Not that long ago, he was hitting a Coke can at 600 and being as goal oriented as he is, always takes the necessary steps to take it further.

Gotcha, this makes more sense.
All kidding aside, if that target was facing upward at 20-30* they would have likely have got 1-2 more impacts.
He forgot to tell us that it's a 22lr railgun....
lol no it’s not a rail gun, she’s on the heavy side for sure but believe me, it gets used for critters about as much as it does shooting targets at any range.
Yeah but that’s cheating!
?can’t imagine who this mysterious sweetheart might be! Thanks MB!
? sorry!
Awesome!
But, but, but....He’s using an Athlon. 
No, ‘they’ say it can’t be done without a NF or SB or Vortex. Say it ain’t so that a $1400 scope actually works.
Side note: this was all said in extreme sarcasm.

The fact that you had to add this exemplifies how stupid and triggered some people truly are.
Was still an impressive bit of marksmanship regardless what scope was on top. Perhaps he wanted a harder challenge ?
Awesome! 5 second time of flight! Y’all should come do this at @lowlight range here in CO. Would save you about 10mils elevation.
Athlons rock!But, but, but....He’s using an Athlon.

If I came out there the last thing I’d be bringing would be my 22
I’ve got something a little bigger I need to stretch the legs on!
