Whats the furtherst shot you have made?
I have a bunch of 300wm loaded up and ready to fly..
So far ive been able to figure the drop out to 1000yds, hitting a 16" stump at 908yds while propped up on a 4wheeler
This weekend we are goin to start at 1000yds and go back till we run out of room, or ammo.
I have a 1760yds marked off on my map, and to my buddys driveway its exactly 2000yds. Furthest we can go is roughly 1900yds and more and we will have to setup in the road haha
Guess we will see what happens and ill report back monday

Well that's surely close enough to be called a hit considering a skeet is what, 3.5"?
haha great, now im gonna be setting skeet up and useing them for targets. Thanks for the idea!

Ive hit targets out at 1000 or so with a M-16A3. It was in Iraq from an overwatch position so it was perfectly clear. We implied a lot of kentucky windage haha. EDIT that was with open sights. some of us had 3x trigicon ACOGs but those were way off most of the time.

Re: Whats the furtherst shot you have made?
i missed a deer at 10 paces once... propped up on a tree... 
oh wait, you said "hits"...
cant say i have ever taken a shot over 100... furthest i have ever killed a deer was about 65. all my hunts have been short range. that will change this year i think...

On purpose or by accident?
Deer- 120ish yard- deer running flat out- 3 shots 3 hits -7mag
1gal milk jug- 300yds -300mag
By accident
coyote-150yd -22lr was just lobbing shots across a bean field to get him off the deer he was chasing, dropped one in the top his skull.

THAT'S COOL!! Over a 1000yrds. ^^^^^^^^
I want to shoot one over 500yrds. My best is around 350ish.

nothing to it when they stand 24 yards behind the 1K target and your shooting a 65# .300 ATLAS w/ 210 Bergers from a bench!

Re: Whats the furtherst shot you have made?
About 90-100 miles, but there was GPS involved. 
As far as smooth bore, 2000 yards with a M1A2 Abrams (with 120 mm main gun) while it was moving @ 20 mph in smoke and dust!
Shoulder fired small arms @ 400yrds open sights ( i though that was pretty far!) You guys are animals. I would like to shoot someone's 1000 yrd rifle one day on a range though not at deer. Thats too damn far to drag 'em.
