You wear a camelbak to have something to drink while walking to service targets.

Re: You know you're shooting long range when:
When you have to calculate for solar windage.
When you have to account for the delta v caused by the gravitational pull of the moon.
When you have to change your oil en-route to the berm.
When you have to hire two Kenyans to run to check your targets.

Re: You know you're shooting long range when:
Your muzzle blast kills more foliage than agent orange.
Your spotter wears a space suit for protection from your brake's blast. And has to tether himself to the ground with kevlar lines & pitons, so when you squeeze one off it doesn't launch him 2 counties over.
Your spotting scope was the prototype for the Hubble.
Your ballistic software is better than what's in an Abrams on their main gun.
You HAVE to squeeze one off on the 1st day of deer season so the slug nails your buck JUST prior to the season closing.

You have to account for "cullylingus" effect.
By the time your bullet hits the berm, your rifle will already be obsolete.
There is a senior centor at your favorite range so poeple can get a 5 round group.
You dont need a spotting scope because your unborn child will have grown up and brought a spotting scope for you to use before impact.
You must not only account for Coriolis effect but also the speed the solar system going around the galaxy in addition to the universal expansion constant. You spent 8 years on your phd in physics and you've won 2 nobel prizes in physics just from the equations in your range notebook.
Nobody believes you and you feel sad.

When your scope rings need to be 12" high so your barrel doesn't obstruct your view through the scope.
