Hey guys I wanted to throw this out there and see if there were any fellow LMT 6.5 Creedmoor shooters pushing past 1000. Im running the 20 inch LMT barrel 15.3 rail version and have brought it out to 1060 (it still fairly new im about 600 rounds down the pipe). Im running a EO Tech 5-25 with tremor3. Running Hornaday 140 BTHP. Once I get past 800 I find that I really have to lock down my fundamentals tight to get reliable hits with this gas gun, but with a spotter and good ammo Ive had success. Honestly I don't think ive nailed a first round hit past 1000 yet, just wanted to hear if anyone else out there is pushing the MWS out this far and how it's going for you. Thanks guys!

What’s up man, I’ve ran a 20” MWS 6.5 in the past and am actually just about to switch back over from 308. I’ve always run a 100 yard zero on any precision rifle

I ran Hornady 140gr ELD-M factory stuff with pretty great success, don’t recall if I was making first round hits at 1k at the time.

I did walk it out from 500 to 1500 yards out in west Texas at Caprock rifle club, target size was 24x24” or 30”x30”, I don’t recall.

I see your’re somewhat local, would be happy to meet up and shoot/spot with you with the gas guns.
