Zoomed in, the treeline is just over 1,900 yards.

This is from the far back shooting position. That is GPSed to around 3,000 yards. </div></div>

Is this what Heaven looks like?

Yes it is, Thank you. We are very blessed to have a few spots close to us to shoot, from 1,400 to 3,000 yards, that are all with in an hour drive or less.

I have a new TRG42 .338 that I've had out to 1000 and I'm itching stretch it out further. I have some Predator Solids on the way from SW Ammo that I want to try next.

Got a .408 CT improved that's just dying to stretch its legs past one mile. Lots of ammo on hand as well. Mind if I join you guys sometime? I live way out on the Eastern Shore but went to school at Radford so I'm familiar...

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: excaliber</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Our targets are from 100yds to roughly 2800yds. Hey Gameonn, What are you shooting? As soon as it dries up, we will go shooting. </div></div>

I am acually shooting a very accurate .223 77 blackhills out of 700 platform. I have shot 300 yrds at qantico and its a tack driver. I want to push it to its limmit. The only reason i have not gone for a bigger caliber is because of placeses to shoot them. But yours sound like a very good setup and will help develop skills and equipment.

Let me know when you guys are shooting next. Thanks

I know a crap load of guys from the Virginia Beach area that would kill to get out there and streach out their rifles. C2's 300 yard range just ain't cuttin' it. Unfortunately I deploy within the week so getting the chance to come out is not happening.

Hello, Everyone who has asked me when we are going to shoot next, and where we'll be. This is it

We'll be at Ray's Fun shoot, and be bringing a few new toys of our own to debut, and let you shoot if you'd like. We'll also be there in case anyone has any trouble, or needs a quick fix. Ray's is always a nice place to shoot, very knowledgeable bunch of people, and plenty of food to be had.

Re: Any Interest shooting out to 3,000 yards in SW VA?

Yep...that would be lots of fun. I live in Ceres and that would be great to have new long range friends. Per my chart I would need 118 MOA...new base ???

Thanks for your time and invite.

Hold high and shoot straight

I've recently picked up a 338LM and have been hoping to find something like this. If there is room sometime, I'd love to tag along!

Newberry, we use 60moa bases on our rifles we shoot over 2000yds. I don`t see the need to shoot big guns (.338`s and bigger any closer than 1000yds. Thats helps to leave more elevation in the scope.

Re: Any Interest shooting out to 3,000 yards in SW VA?

Yep...that's for the 7mm rem...I have the L 192 bat action. Where/who has the base I need.I talked to Near Scope and he has 60 MOA rings 3 total $320.00.

Shot me a e-mail with info...I'll buy it next. Got to shot with you boys.

Happy day someone else will run the targets.Just let me know and I'll do anything to help. I can bring my 4 wheeler if need be. Just a ideal if the local fire/chruch groups could feed us for $$$.

Re: Any Interest shooting out to 3,000 yards in SW

where exactly where do you guys go shooting? I can't shoot out to 3000 yards quite yet since I only have a 6.5 Creedmoor but I have gone out to a mile with it and would enjoy to shoot at least 1k or so.

I'm a student at Virginia Tech so just seeing how far of a drive it would be for me.

That's not bad at all. I'm almost 2.5 hours from Thunder Valley Precision when I'm home.

I may have to come out sometime and check it out and shoot a little bit if that's cool.

Are you enrolled this semester? I'm in Blacksburg and it would be cool to partner up for a shoot in the area sometime.

I'm assuming you keep a rifle with you.
