750 yard shot

[babolat69]

I read somewhere that the rifles that where found in the guys truck was a "high power" .22lr (lol) and a pelot rifle

I dont know if they had any other rifles somewhere else but it seems to be there was no way in heck they where going to make that shot. That is why the police where quick to point out that it was'nt a creadible threat eventhough the anti-gun press was pointing out that he was in actual danger....

seriously? .22lr a high power? That must mean my 7mm Rem Mag must be a canon and a 50bmg is an asteroid.

IIRC it was a 22-250 they had. Still not credible for a 750 yd shot.

10/10 on a 9" dinger off a rest on my cousins back porch, 700ADL in '06. 3/4 prairie dogs off the same mound in Montana with a Ruger #1 in .223, gust of wind screwed #4. All were with hand loads before the eyes went south. Did shoot expert in the Corps with an M-14 though [back when they still issued a spear and shield with our 782 gear].

I read about 3 paragraphs and shut her down. 'high velocity Ruger sniper rifle'; those words alone made me click the 'x' to close the page.

Yea this is a really old thread. Anywho, I didn't see it posted, but check this video out.

860yds with a .223 out of an AR. Yes, it's extremely calm with almost zero wind and there's hardly elevation, but it's still possible.e

If they just aimed to hit his ego, they could have just closed their eyes and pulled the trigger.
