The new shooting area Hog and i were scouting yesterday. The sandy backstop is one mile away with a 25x18" target out there.

Image
Hits on the target after a 5 rounds each

Image
Even at 1760 yards the 50 still has enough power to wreck havoc on my stand. It bent the angle iron, busted 2 welds and split the square tubing.

2 amax bullets recovered after their mile flight.

Awesome...
"Safety" "yea I heard of it. It's that mechanism on the side of a Gun to keep you from shooting people you like".

"Talked to GA Precision yesterday. Conversation basically went straight to "Credit Card Number please"...Gun should be ready in about 4-6 weeks."

We are going out Sunday to push the 99's back to the mile spot and beyond...Pics will follow :camo:

Looking forward to getting out with the fifties with Vegas and the boys! There is another gentleman who is also supposed to be shooting with us shooting a suppressed fifty...I am very curious to see that beast in action! :headbang:

Today we got out and shot at the mile spot, good times as always. The rifles were shooting a little flatter than normal, it was only taking about 51.5 minutes of elevation to get out there, which for me was maxing my scope out at just over 40 minutes of available elevation (I sold my adjustable rings with the BORS to a forum member) So I dialed 41.5 moa and was using my 10 minute hash to hold on target, we scored some good hits and had a great time. Kurt (from LVS teel targets) Shot with us today with his supressed fifty, that thing was pretty impressive, seemed to have more recoil than the Barretts, but the blast, noise was definitely not present. Good day of shooting with good people!
