He may have, but a bullet that will go that far ain't cheap... 1000's would be tens of thousands of dollars in ammo

Impressive he hit it with his 69th shot!!!! Cool.

1000 yard shots aren't exactly uncommon these days. Even my BIL who cheaped out on his rifle build has pretty good luck with it.

I figure if I can do it anybody can. The biggest problem is finding a place to do it. I did it at a school in Montana. We had a range outside of San Diego that went out to 860 yards.
Once you get your scope doped its fairly straightforward to repeat provided you use the same ammo.

Some, yes.


We set up balloons and have a gong at 1000. Shot is East to West so that SW Kansas wind can equate to some impressive holdovers.

Hit 1000 with .308, 6.5cm, and 338LM

There are guys out here that would embarrass me, too. Some real skill.

One time I did a man in Laos at a mile in a half in a heavy cross wind. Maybe 3 men in the world could've made that shot. Killing is all I know.

With the way guns are built now, the advancements in ammo, scopes, and knowledge that is available to read. Shooting 1000 yards is about the same as 600-700 yards 20 years ago.

Shit I could probably get everyone on this board hitting 1000 yard shots within 2MOA within an hour with each person.

Wow. The number of great shooters has really increased recently. I should alert the 1stMarDiv scout/sniper schoolhouse that Kansas City is a hotbed great shooters. They might want step up their recruitment efforts. Well done, gents!

Or you can let 5th group know I can still shoot after they invested all the money in me and sending me through Sniper School.

Would if I knew them. What school did you attend? What class? Instructors?

Pretty incredible deal, but its really just kind of a trick shot. The physics make it interesting though.

United States Army Sniper School

A class in 2011

Yes there was 11 instructors

“A class.” Lol. Ok bro.

Doubling down on dumb? Shocking.
