Hey guys,
First off, I love shooting, as I’m sure most of you do. Well one of my “have to’s” is to be able to shoot 1,000 yards one day. Now I know I’m not doing that any time this year or next, or maybe even 5, BUT I would like to start down that road.
I figure purchasing something that would get me to 600 yards first would be the smart thing to do.
Also, I shoot for fun. No competition, no hunting, just for the shear enjoyment of hitting a target.
So my first question, and I guess most important, AMMO. Which ammo would be able to get me to 600 yards, and be extremely cheap? (note, im NOT trying to have a 3” pattern either. Hell, 20” would be fine at that range) And then look into rifle’s?
Would a 300 win mag be a good choice to start? What do you guys recommend?
Thanks,
