Here is my son Zack shooting 1050 yards 13 mph winds no practice shots. This is his first time ever shooting this far target is 20 inches.

 

Here i am shooting the same distance 1050 yards I shot first then my son shot 2nd. Again no practice shots 1st shot hits for both.

 

My second shot at this distance hit same place as my first shot producing a 2" group.

 

here are some more videos for your viewing. I just recorded from my phone while the camera was plugged into the TV so I can upload faster. I will get a full video edited and uploaded when i have time. My nephew Price is 10 years old and has only shot long range 2 times, my son of course shots as much as i do (100 rounds a week), my dad is also getting into the long range fun when I built him a 6.5 Creedmoor.

Very cool. Interested in sharing your rifle details, load details, etc.? I'm looking to build up a 6.5 of some flavor this year, and the Creedmoor is on my short list.

I use a redding neck bushing die but I first run my cases through my body die and bump my shoulder everytime .001. The annealing helps a lot with consistent neck tension. I was annealing by hand but doing it after every firing I decided a machine would benefit so I bought the Ballistics Edge model 400. I have a review on it I will share.
