[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1760176, member: 101859"] Yes, many of the local competitors have kills well beyond 1k. Some pushing 2k. I live near the old Lawton place and cheytacs were very popular here. But the more experiance you gain the more you come to the conclusion theres so many variables at those ranges to take into account and many of us have pulled back our max distances a bit. Not because the guns cant do it but because we know we cant calculate all of the data, especially the conditions you cant even see. The only ones that think its easy dont have a lot of experience. I figure I have close to 20k rounds fired at 1k and beyond, and I still miss. When I shoot an animal I want the shot where I want it, not just a hit. [/QUOTE]
