Default RE: My New Stick...FN PBR XP...

I've gotten pretty used to a fixed 10x, even up close. I've taken my Barrett all the way out to 800m, but I've trained with some guys who come close to my groups all the way out to 1600m. There is some real talent out there.
You aren't kidding there is some talent out there![:-]
I was at the big Harrisburg Sport Show a couple weeks ago and there was a guy walking around with a gigantic benchrest rifle and what I assumed was a framed "winning" target.
It was a 3 shot group and 2 were touching in the middle with one "flyer" about 4" outside the center 2.
I was thinking 'Whats so great about that group?".......til' I found out it was shot at 1600 yards. [:-][]

2 holes touching at 1600 yards is almost , no not almost, IS beyond my comprehension. The 4" wide one is bad enough to ponder, but 2 rounds cutting the same hole at that distance? Holy smokes.

I wish I would have talked to him to see what the rig was exactly. LONG barrel big arse muzzle break laminated bench style stock.
