It might clear up some confusion if you were to post pictures and or video of your longest verified LR kill.

Just to keep things on the up and up. laugh

Long range?

John Squirms,

My bad. It'll "clear up" for others,when you cite your Rimfire LR "wares"...excepting the FACT that you can not. Hint. Congratulations?!?

At least Imagination and Pretend are FREE,so you can "afford" to "contribute"...you "lucky" kchunt. Hint.

Bless your heart for Trying.

Right about there is where, even a lot of the flat shooting rifles, have dropped or are dropping below MPBR.

Yep


Very few will get to 350 with a 6" target size. More with 8" or greater. A 6.5mm 142g bullet with a B.C. of .625 and 3050fps at the muzzle has a 313 yard MPBR at 7000 feet altitude for a 6" target, 352 yards for an 8" target. A 10" target only gets to 386 yards MPBR, but now you're talking about +5" above line of sight. I prefer 3" max, hence my preference for 6" target sizes for MPBR zeros.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

A good .30-06 is a 99% solution.

I can see your logic on the 6" target for hunting applications. That 6" target really peels back the MPBR on things !! Not your optimal long range projectile...…..but the 485 B.C. 7mm bullet that gets me to 442 yards (at your house at 7000 feet) on a 10" only makes 360 yards on a 6" target. Still fairly respectable in the point-and-shoot aspect.

Since most of my shots are 200 or less,I sight in 2" at 100 yards with most of my rifles.

Some rifles that 2" at 100 yards may be dead on at 225 or 250 yards.

I'm lovin' this forum! LOL!

For me, I don't want to shoot any farther than what I can practice and the shooting range I belong to is 200 yards max. However, if the wind isn't bad I know the holdover for 300 and 400. But that's about it until I find a place to practice that has a longer range potential.

He can't & he doesn't.

MPBR.... “holdovers”... rimfires... elkhunternm....

Things that should never be allowed in Long Range Hunting threads.

NOTHING teaches wind reading,like gunning a Rimfire beyond it's zero range.

That’s like saying rubbing one out to a Katy Perry poster “teaches” you how to lay the pipe to a beautiful woman.... nothing wrong with a little .22lr masterbation.... just don’t try to convince everyone that it helps you actually get laid.

There's much to be said for watching projectile flight,enroute to the target,as atmospheric feedback. Alas...not everyone can afford a High Zoot Rimfire,as you eloquently attest. Congratulations?!?

Hint.
