Semi, This is my longest attempt, I hooked up with it in just a Few Shots (7 shots Total), This was starting from SCRATCH with a BRAND New Barrel, I had no idea how Many MOA i would need to get there? It ended up being 180 from my 100 Yard Zero, which is 180 Feet at 1,200 Yards, (1 MOA at 1,200 Yards Equals 1 Foot) Pretty remarkable when you really think about what these BIG Bullets are Capable of. I have enough Sight to Get to 1 Mile (1,760 Yards) But the Target is gonna have to be MUCH Bigger in order for me to See it

I have been FASCINATED with Dave Gullo’s “Long Shot” video from my beginning in Muzzleloading, Where Ripley’s Believe it or not Filmed him down at Raton New Mexico at the NRA Whittington Center, Dave Shot a Black Balloon on the White Buffalo (Homer) at 1,123 Yards. I feel This shoot of mine Beat that, Or at least equalled it (Dave is a 2 or 3 Time World Champion)
