Well I wanted to get into long range shooting/hunting about a year ago. I had a very knowlegable shooter (CWT member Speedygross) help me build a rifle. I picked up a 300 win mag Remington 700 5R Rifling. He then bedded the gun, timney trigger, 20 moa 1 peice ring, seekins precision rings, and Vortex scope. Then I realized how much more there was to long range shooting as such as building a round that my gun would like. WOW that was a long process. I had a guest bedroom in my house that was used once a year for guest so I turned it into a reloading room, (wife was pissed). I finally made a round that worked for me. (210 berger, re-22, norma brass). Then a buddy of me told me about the app for my phone called SHOOTER. Now saying I am impressed is an understatement. I plugged in all my info that I had for this app, here is a few( velocity, temp, round, gun, elevation, barometric pressure, etc....) The app then tells you how many MOA or clicks to your target. So yesterday was the first real day of long range. I took my kids out and we zero the gun at 100.....I then pulled up the app on my phone and dialed in 400. I am shooting at a small steel gong which in 12 inches wide and 20 inches long. At 400 yds whic is the furthes I have ever shot before I hit dead center up and down and left and right and there is that wonderful noise (BING!!!!!) My kids and i look at each other like WOW> lets go to 600.....At 600 that 12 inch steel is very small....We put in the info again and set the scope to what it told me. FIRE-- and BING!!!!!! Holy cow nailed it again and dead center. Now I'm blown away. So then my kids say dad lets just try it. The big 1000 yards. We set up and get our MOA and set the gun up... This 12 inch steel pipe you cant even see anymore. Set the scope to 20 power and Shoot......CRAP MISS.....Elevation looked good so i set back up again and take my time for a perfect still shot. Shoot and BING!!!!!!!!!! It was such a feel of accomplishment. Took about a year to do, but I have a new goal now of 1 mile (1780 I believe). I will continue to practice all yardage but it felt good hearing that BING at 1000 and pass my first goal.. Thought I would share
