    JW:

    What type of 'very good' glass is your observer using to spot trace and splash to 1500 yards off of a 6.5mm bullet?

    LR1955

    FYI...

    Article - Shooting A 223 To A Mile Accurately

    "The rock is 12" wide and 8" high as we see it! (I did measure the rock beforehand)

    6 out of 7 rds well inside a sub MOA rock at "1 mile". I'll take that...."

    Reminds me of the time I tried walking rounds into a 1'x2' steel plate with a Charter Arms Bulldog in .44 Special from the 200 yd line. Don't recall hitting the steel, but it was fun to try for a couple cylinders to see where the slugs splashed into the berm.
