    shooting boxes of ammo at a distant steel plate might be fun but is of little value, trying to dope the wind at 4500 metres is a matter of luck not skill,
    I have shot both full bore an F class at times you have the wind going in three directions between you and the target even at 600 metres what would it be at 4.5 Km,
    The top full bore and F class shooters can get a first shot centre hit on the target at 1000 yards but not every time, miss judge the wind by 3 MOA and you score a 2,
    If hunting an animal would try and shoot it at 4.5 Km or drive 4 Km closer
    The second option please....rive (or harden up and walk) would be a far better idea. If you hit it you have to go there anyway to get it so you are going that way anyway.....

    Mark and Sam's latest effort, 1,000 and 1,500 yards on a Zombie head in the wind.

    I have seen some of their stuff before. They seem much more "normal" and practical and more what I like to see.
