This was a 2nd round impact. I also reached out to 2260 with a .338, but I was more impressed with my creedmoor. 180 feet of drop!!!

In real world terms, how much damage does a bullet do at that range? Energy must be next to nothing
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Impressive, Ryan. Out of curiosity, what did you use to determine range?

In real world terms, how much damage does a bullet do at that range? Energy must be next to nothing about the energy as a 32acp at point blank range...... enough to make your day suck hard if you got hit

Terrapin In real world terms, how much damage does a bullet do at that range? Energy must be next to nothing It has a tad more energy than a 124gr FMJ at the muzzle from a 9mm It was about 390 ftlbs

Nice shooting. That's flat out getting it. I was just happy to take my 308 to 1K.

Way outside trans-sonic! Well done, love a trued Kestrel.
180' of hold over, not drop. The Kestrel shows maximum ordinate, you have to dig, but it's in there.

That's cool... really cool... but I can't see the impact It's such a small mark on the rock, it was hard to see on video, but I hit a couple of times w/ the same result. The puff of rock dust that goes flying is about the easiest thing to see.

Cool, but I've watched the video at least 5 times and can't see the impact point.

Cool, but I've watched the video at least 5 times and can't see the impact point. Can you see the dust off the rock? I hit the rock twice, only once in the video. The spotter was using a 50x Swaro STR. It was much easier to see though the spotter.
