In my world hunting long range means that you cheat all you can, especially with your shooting method.
Anything less is just plain dumb.

I'm on route to get mine done , DDman is really putting the pressure on a guy hahaddman, I really wish that shot was a bit farther away……I'm already in deep doo doo, and with only one shooter so far!memtb
I even brought my callipers I sure hope I'm close enough that I can use them

I had to make myself get out and do it. There's supposed to be 20-30 mph wind tomorrow instead of the 9 mph wind this morning. I definitely don't want to get out and try to shoot in that.
I use every possible advantage/ cheat I can while hunting for sure. This is just for fun so hopefully everyone is honest about what they are doing.

30 nosler 205 elite 3060 fps
Tikka t1x SK pistol match
Weather +6 F
This is a lot harder than you would actually think. So here is my entry and I definitely don't have to worry about winning this month
I brought the 22 just for fun
Grabbed first rifle I could get ahold of. (Ruger American Omega 300 on the end 55gr 223) Put my 9" pie plate up at the 100yd mark and let it go. Results speak for themselves. Before and after photos of pie plate. Whats next? Edit.....I think it should be decided on the first of next month. No practice or prep reps, just let er rip chip~~

Wow! What a morning……did some practice "dry firing" prior to "the shot"! Had I shot during some of the "dry fire" shots…..it would've taken a yardstick to measure at sear break! Went back into the house, downed 2 more cups of coffee to settle me down, came back and made "the shot"!
The photos show weather, outside conditions (bench is a measured 100 yards from the target frame), weight of rifle as shot, and the target.
"The Target" - is not representative of the "dry fire" shots, this is pure accident! My rifle is zero'd 3" high @ 100 yards, the yellow spot on the target is where the bullet should've hit.
Rifle is semi-custom Winchester Model 70, chambered in .375 AI, load is Barnes 270 LRX @ 3018 mv……chrono'd this morning.
Again, I probably couldn't duplicate this shot in a week of shooting…..but I'll take it! memtb

That's some good shooting
Yes I agree feb 1st new challenge.
Trm82, I may be gone most of February, but will continue stay on the site and follow the activities. Very likely will be the end of the month before I shoot! memtb

Copy that !! Hopefully you'll be able to get your shot down in February
Also for everyone , I was thinking that I'm not going to keep track of all shots.
DDman is the leader so far so I won't bother till someone beats or ties 7/8".

I bet you know when you pull the trigger on the 375 with no brake
