Longrifles, for some of these shooters long range is 100 yards!

I have shot with some of the best shooters out there when I lived in AZ, and I know what these people are capable of, it is just mind boggling to see how easy they shoot a clean at 1000 yards while you struggle not to shoot anything worse than an 8..

My claim to fame is that 8 years ago I did beat 28 out of 30 Marine shooters with M14's in a 1000 yard service rifle match (ran by Mid) shooting my stock Garand with Var barrel. That included shooting 2 misses when we had a 180 degree wind change that took me 10 minutes of windage to get back on target. These days I don't think I could see the targets any more.
