I've been working in a 1000 yard shot with my Cooper 54 Excalibur .260 with Valdada high-end Euro glass to compliment the rifles quality.

I worked out the mat myself and never took any lessons in long range stuff. I used a buddy to spot where my shot was going and he guided me to the plate. The winds gave us a break and were below 10 mph all morning. Using Monolitiic Munitions 109gr GS Custom bullet, I finally rand the gong. For a couple of guys going it on their own, we only took 87 rounds to get it done.

Once we have the 1000 yard thing down, it's time for a custom action and 26" barrel. The 1500 yard gong is calling.

I read on a forum today where a guy used a .260 to drop an elk at 480 yards. The .260 is an amazing round.

Some folks STILL drive L-88s and need the good gas.
