2.4 mile shot

Ed, I agree that they will work with a custom. I'm speaking of the normal Mod 70 and Mausers.

A Gewehr 98?

Well I'll be darned. I just got a Gewehr 98 sporter. Couldn't pass it up at $250. Still not sure I would trust it for a round this big.

I plan to be at Raton next June 26-30 for the Ko2M match. If I can't qualify with my long loaded 338 LM at 3.95+/- oal 300gr Hybrids, I will learn at lot just observing and asking a few common sense questions.

It would be interesting as well as informative to see the trajectory laid out. Sure would not be close to those depicted in movies.

That is a wonderful attitude, ISS

Would be helpful to know the dimensions of the 375 Lethal, 375 Warlord and the 375 HE.

Any idea about velocity for a 450ish grain 416 ULD?

That's wild, but the Cutting Edge bullet in that class has a lower bc than their .375. I wonder if they, or someone else, will make a 416 with higher bc?

Do any of you have a program that can plot the trajectory of a 2.4 mile shot?
