Name is Brett, long time reader, I finally decided to register as I started my first build recently and figured I would introduce myself. I'm definitely not new to shooting but fairly green in the long range/precision game. I have shot to 600 before but that has been with my Weatherby chambered in .30-.378 using hold over. Rifle was zeroed at 300 so the drop was not too significant but now I am wanting to ditch those methods and wanting to upgrade to a proper matching turret/reticle setup. I am looking forward to expandingmy knowledge base and hoping I can rely on you guys :cool:
 
Welcome to the obsession. What part of Missouri are you from?

I am near Rolla, we have a pretty good range near here to let you reach out a bit.
Warrenton here, 45 miles West of STL. on highway 70. What range are you referring to and how far? Owensville? I was a member of benchrest (8 miles from my house) until this year. Dues went up and I did not go enough to justify the $250 per year membership. Bench Rest Rifle Club in case anyones interested. Their range is a hair over 640 yards on the first 10 benches. I have a personal range with a concrete 3 person bench 20 miles from me so the drop made sense. I think there is a hillside I can go up and have somewhere between 900-1100 yards to the same backstop. I need to range the full distance. I wouldn't be opposed to a decent drive for a days shooting though if it is a nice setup with some good distance.
