I got a text today from one of my customers that he was able to take a pronghorn today from long range! He shot it at a lasered 1030 yards!!! Amazing! This is the longest confirmed kill I have heard of with my ammo. There has been several in the 600 and 700 yard range, but never this far. Posted with permission.

Rifle- Custom 6.5-284 Norma

I don't think I'd be able to see that far much less hit something....

Wow. Congrats to the shooter, and the loader.

That's amazing?

Not poking or anything, just curious how fast is that bullet going at 1000 yards?

This will be close. About 1630 fps with 830 ft/lbs of energy.

Kidding aside, that's some pretty accurate ammo & nice turbo goat.

Great shot! How the heck did he get a range finder to read off of an antelope at over a thousand yards?

May have ranged off a rock, bush, or tree nearby if it wouldn't work off the goat. If you're shooting that far, you probably have a 1600yd RF by Leica or similar that can do it.

Just WOW

Awesome.

Chad that's great, great advertising.

one must realize thats in a controlled invernment... congrates ta the shooter dought i could have pulled that shot off at 200yrds... Here lately 100yrds is tough for me ...
