Yes I do have some, "get more gun" lol.
If your really serious about that, be thinking about the long and heavy 300 gr bullets traveling at 3000 fps or better.


Heavy is better?

In a word yes, especially when coupled with velocity. As for wind reading, it's much easier to do after the last one lands.
Check out the serious extreme distance shooters and see what they are using.

Them aint my rules, but they are the rules if your serious about shooting those kind of distances.
