I wasn't comparing, I was just stating what's probably my best shot to date. And I would love to try shooting a moving target at 1,000 yards cause it'd A) be a huge ego boost and B) Be pretty damn awesome thing to brag about.

Out of curiosity, HTRN, what kind of sight/scope does your rifle have?

*blink*

What'd you say that was addressed to me?

It used to have a Leupold 36x, but I got rid of it because I wanted more magnification and a variable X. Murphy's law struck about 2 months after I got rid of it and before I bought a new scope, I fell down a flight of stairs and shattered my left knee, requiring a plate and 8 screws. It pretty much wiped me out financially. But now that I'm working again, I plan on attending the BR nationals in Williamsport this summer. The new one is going to be a 12-36x56 Benchrest model from Nightforce. Price is somewhere around $1300. The reason I want a variable is so it can do double duty as a Looooong range varmint rifle.

Hrm. What happened to the discussion about what gun to get? Is that conversation essentially over?
