RE: 500 yards
While I would not shoot at game that far I wish I had some place I could try it for fun. I normally won't shoot a high powdered rifle that far at game I am afraid they will move before the bullet gets there. Did you check your flight time? I am curious about it. Lee

WOW!! that is some impressive shooting there. It just shows you what a person with skills can do. Now I honestly doubt that I could pull off a shot like that but it is impressive to know that someone can.

I hope it works out better than your clay shooting prowess.... (j/k)
We need to burn some powder soon. [8D]

Yep, I'd like to have another shooting day when we're not freezing our tails off, I'm thinking August may work. This pregnancy has been a little tough for my wife and I've been really busy (I killed and replanted that whole field this year) so it's been a no-go so far. May have the ML guys come in early and make some smoke before we bust our shoulders on the shotguns this time.
Thanks everyone, just goes to show what a very modestly modified off-the-shelf ML is capable of these days if you put the work into knowing it well.
