took 10 seconds to travel the 2.14 miles towards the fighter How far do you have to lead him?

Just wait till they get ahold of a 6.5 Creedmore.
I'm here to increase my social credit score and rub elbows with some of the highest rollers on the internet.

their math is off 4.28 seconds at nominal 2641 fps of the 50.reporters. they are so much smarter then us.
awesome shot. i guess i better start watching my six to the north, them Canadians are getting feisty!

Gives a new meaning to the term "windage and elevation".

Canadians have the 1.2.3 & 5 furthest shot by now?

At that range, you better take the Coriolis Effect into account!

awesome shot. i guess i better start watching my six to the north, them Canadians are getting feisty! I dont even know where to start to calc this right now, but I was pretty sure the calcs on the 1800 yard shots I took once with my 50 were 4-5 seconds time of flight and seems like the impact from the steel kind of confirmed it was in that same TOF area around 5 seconds. I'd think double that would be more than 10 seconds, but it doesn't much matter at this point. LOL

Anyone have any idea what the drop would be, with a hypothetical 1000 yard zero? A ball park figure.

awesome shot. i guess i better start watching my six to the north, them Canadians are getting feisty! I don't know the fps of the gun he was using, but if you have that right, then you are correct. At 11,319 ft which is a little over 2 miles, it would be 4.28 seconds of flight time. Regardless, unbelievable shot from a hand held rifle.

I sure could swear that 1800 was around 5 seconds, but I've not shot my 50 at longer distances in a long time.... like I said, regardless, its a heck of a shot and heck of a lucky shot to boot. Would not want to be within a few miles of that dude, with him after me. Good shooter that knows whats going on, AND has a golden BB from time to time...

What I read it was over 3700 yards, 750 amax at 2800 fps rough run is around 8 seconds TOF. Roughly
And years ago we didn't have amax, were running AP bullets as they were more accurate at the time than ball, so that could make up for the TOF issue too.

Rifle was a McMillan TAC-50 with suppressor. The 'can' looked all of two feet long.
How much would that affect velocity?
