Broke my PB today with the 22-243 Middlestead

580 YARDS

Cool Deal!!!!!!! Nice light colored one too!!

That's a long poke alright!

Yipes! Now that's out there a ways. What bullet were you using? Congrats on the beautiful coyote. It's a dandy.

He would have never even knew you where there, great shooting, that 22-243 is obviously doing the business for you.

Load is a 55gr Berger with 43grs of RL15 cruising @ 4050fps.

How come it never made it to the contest page

Drive by? He never saw that berger coming! Nice shot Dawg.......

Yup, drive-by.

That's a shot to be proud of. Tell us more about the conditions, and what scope your using.

i didn't know a bullet could go that far....

nice shot

Rich,

The 22-243 is scoped with a 6-20X50 Burris Fullfield II.

how clear is that scope on full power? I have the fullfield II 4.5-16x40.

Anybody know what goes Clippity Clop Cippity Clop BANG!!! BANG!!! Clippity Clop Clippity Clop!!












An Amish drive by shooting!!!!!!!!!!

w00t,

It's as clear on 20X as it is on 6X.

NICE dawgmaster, gotta love the feeling.

So did you have to make up for wind or anything at that length? I mean I know you did, but how much? How did you go about doing that? I've been shooting a .22 all my life and I'm ready for a better rifle and I'm interested in long range shooting. I just think it would be cool to see a delay in the bullet.

Motman,

Didn't allow for wind at all! Held the verticle crosshair dead center of the coyote.

And as for elevation...I have Bal Mil-dot reticle so I held the fourth line down (which is about 550 range) on the body and squeezed!

That's awesome!

If you were to shoot some one, you wouldn't even have to have a different alibi where you where at the time of the death. It just seams like you would have had to make up for some wind? That's amazing.
