Thread: Best load for long range shooting?

No brainer buddy. The only payoff for lowered wind drift and compromised accuracy is if it's blowing it's tits off and/or u have no idea of the true wind direction. So don't bother shooting LR then anyways !

So what ranges are you shooting at?

Put it this way : I have some serious LR gear that I've totally built and gunsmithed myself but see no point in shooting at animals out far enough to the point where luck becomes a major factor in a hit, let alone a humane one. It proves nothing, least of all that I'm a great shooter.
At either end of the day when the wind is usually minimal some LR hits are truly possible, but firstly to my mind that means using a BIG HEAVY full custom rifle with top level components and ergonomics. Or at least be using a rifle that's actually capable of top level and consistent ( not one great wallet group ) accuracy.
It's a very cool past time that I'm totally addicted to. Just keep it real.
