    308 win for 1 mile shot

    After reading the great replys and my experiance today with my 6.5x284 at 1350 yards, I'm really second guessing the feasability of this. I got elevation nailed down well, but light breezes were throwing my 140vlds all over the place. This rifle/scope/load combo shoots consistent 1 inch groups...

    308 win for 1 mile shot

    what's not helpful? Tubb does use a different caliber (6.5x284), but he walks through the entire process, from equipment to ballistic calcs, to execution. He also states that the bullets were transonic before reaching the target. The Magpul vid goes less into details, but it shows guys...

    308 win for 1 mile shot

    The .223 at one mile article is a great writeup. I think my accuracy goal (3 consecutive hits on an IPSC target) is a bit smaller. I've watched David Tubb's mile shot video and the mile shots from the Magpul Art of the Precision Rifle and think these are good references as well for anyone...

    308 win for 1 mile shot

    MLC, nice shooting. I will be shooting into a dusty field, so as long as there isn't rain, or weeds. I should see plenty of dust kick up. I've shoot some 230 ball from a 1911 at ~75 yards while playing around in the same terrain and got plenty of kick up. I'm thinking I'll start with 2 4x8...

    308 win for 1 mile shot

    Nice shooting! I plan on starting with 2 full 4x8 sheets to get on paper, then switching to smaller targets when I know whats going on. If my bullets are tumbling, I'll know I need to change bullets. I'll have spotters. DA should be close to 5k. There is a great thread about someone taking...

    308 win for 1 mile shot

    I'm comfortable to 1130 with m118lr. It chronos at 2650 from the m24's 24 inch 11.25 twist barrel. I haven't measured the throat, but as this is a long action, I intend to seat as long as the throat will allow. My problem is deciding between slow and slippery and fast but stable. I have ~90...

    308 win for 1 mile shot

    I want to get out to a mile with my M24r. Looking for 3-5 consecutive hits on an IPSC sized target. I have the optics problem solved (thanks nightforce), but there looks to be 2 methods for getting out to 1 mile accurately: the first would be a transonically stable bullet like a 185...
