A shot at 1000 yards is not something that should be taken lightly. I have a friend that was a sniper in the service, and he has stated that there a many many factors involved in a shot like that. That is why they work in teams of two. He also said that the longest shot he ever had to make in that capacity was around 600 yards. For what it is worth though, his issue weapon was an Anschultz 308.
