The long range cold bore shot project

[Wazukie]

OK, so what is a long shot with a .17 hmr?  I could go with the .243 or .300, but the .17 is so much fun.

Depends on the wind. Anything more than 5 mph and I'd be impressed with a 50 yard shot! Anything past 200 yards with any rimfire is pretty good in my book.

OK, that's good to know.  I shoot it out to 300 all the time. I could probably do milk jugs at 400 but not sure it'd have enough to even penetrate at the distance, lol

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!

Did some shooting tonight and trying to load video but can not seem to load a mp4? file to large.  ideas?

Try uploading it to either YouTube or photobucket

We have bullet drop figured out for a .32 win at 562 yards!  Ask any getsum crew and they know!!  Ha ha cause we had alot of laughs!! 

That's the kind thing I want to see! I have more fun walking shots in at random ranges than anything else.

On a side note, does anyone else get nervous when half the forum mods tag in on a thread? It kind of feels like having a state trooper cruising behind you on the freeway. You know you're  all legal, but you still keep checking your mirrors. 

Nothing to see here. Moving along.

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

The travel time on that shot is impressive.
