The long range cold bore shot project

[jay.sharkbait]

Okay guys I think I have a YouTube video. this was last night about 7 o'clock. my wife was doing the recording so not perfect but gets the job done. 1998 yards 2 shots cold barrel. watch vapor trail left hand side and follow to impact of 8x12 white rock bottom center of screen.

The travel time on that shot is impressive.

That it got there so fast?

Takes about 3 seconds of travel. just over 60moa elevation and 2.8moa for spin drift and coriolis. hard to see but first shot a few inches short second shot impact on rock. Was just about a perfect night with less them 1 mph wind. The second video of 7mag in wind is acually tougher conditons to hit clays at 775.
Have to thank Travis for the gun builds, He really does make it pretty easy.

Maybe impressive wasn't the right word to use. I was amazed how long it took, but admittedly I've never watched a video of a shot that long like that before.

Nice shooting buddy.  I still think 1500 with your LW 260AI is going to an easy one.  Especially if its as calm that night.  May have to get our "trio" of them out and do some video.

This will be fun. Tagging along so I remember to take videos and share.

JK, it's no fun to watch video of you missing all the time!

I know, right. Bring that pea shooter of yours and let's make some videos.

This just got weird.

Yeah, I didn't think that one through very well.

Nice shooting! "Only" 775 yards on the 7mm lol  . Do you have any specs on your loads for the 338 and 7mm?

I think that's going to be between you and Jimmy to figure out.

I think he's referring to my .25-06.  If that's the case, my "pea shooter" seems to print much better than his 300 RUM.  Of course, it could be the shooter.

Exactly your 25.06... I will admit, your 5 shots through a single hole is impressive. I want to see what happens at longer distances.

300RUM is all set now. Dropped the stock trigger to 3.5lbs. Have a new cheek pad, and ditched the crappie bipod. I think that trigger pull at 1000lbs was an issue lol. The new timney trigger will go in next if the stock trigger isn't up to par. I will bring it to the range when we go. The 300winmag is already to go and I purchased a new scope and rings etc for the 257 since you found the issue with rubbing on the caps.

Thanks Travis,
I agree We should get all three LW 260AI and have a litte friendly shooting match, I am sure we can get Mick wound up on that. Been busting plenty of clays at 1000 with the LW 260AI. The worst thing about an RBROS rifle is the shooter never has an excuse for missing the target.
As far as load data the 338 is 3000 fps with 300grn otm. 7mag at that time was running 168 vld hunt at 3020 fps.
