Ratman2 2 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Nice shooting but just out of interest, why did you use a brick?? One of my favorite things I use for targets are beer cans filled with water, very dramatic results if you hit them dead center. hi mate the reason i use a brick is because they blow up to, you hit it or you dont and at that range on a brick you see the bullet strike no probs and when you turn it side on as i did when i shot it @365yds is about the same size as a crow, no special reason for using bricks i just like to see em blow up Can’t argue with that mate.

SNAP SHOT 194 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Good on ya remmy, thats excellent going, And truely believeable a few of us here are now shooting 500ml lemonade bottles such as coke, 7up, etc at distances out to 400 yards, its a challange, busting clays at 450 yards, with the right load, and knowhow anything within the limits of the calibre can be achieved. Got called a lier, after some of the shots i said i made, and proved myself to those who thought they knew how to shoot, time spent on the range and an understanding of the ballistics is all that is needed. can't get those 87grain hp hornady's here at the minute remmy but looking to try the 87 v-max when in the north next time. good luck with the bricks, Quote Link to post

FOXHUNTER 5,020 Posted March 8, 2008 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 Good shooting Remmy , just ignore people who dont believe its that they are ignorant and havent seen long range shooting before. My mate shoots rabbits at 500 yards regularly dialling in , I was amazed to watch such accurate shooting .Keep pushing the boundarys Dave, his furthest is 644 yards on a hare with a 1 shot kill..
