extreme range 400 to 408 inches.
groups at over 1/2 a mile. 1000 yards.Shot first group under 1/2 moa @ 1000 yds I was happier than The Only Blowfly in a SLAUGHTER HOUSE .Previous groups 1-2 months ago were w/varget powder.Been trying different powders Win-748 & Imr xbr 8208.Wil probably try Accurate 2520 soon.What is really amazing ;since it cooled off here I'm dialing 160-163 clicks.My 8-32 x 56 mil dot has 1/4 moa adjustment .that is 400 to 408 inches of drop.that's 34 feet, .After recent groups I think it may be possible to shoot 1/4 to 1/3 moa at 1000; i think that would be like shooting 10 shots through the same Hole at 100 yards.Time will tell.The krieger group was about 30-40 min after critreion group; the wind kept picking up.IT wa s almost 1/2 moa.Some day i'm going to run into a dead calm day I Hope.

Re: extreme range 400 to 408 inches.
That’s impressive. Your using the 40gn V-max?
Savage VLP + NF 12x42 + 35 Bergers = .

Re: extreme range 400 to 408 inches.
yes,The 40 v-max is what i use.They shoot awesome w/varget,win-748, XBR- 8208 out of my 1-11 twist barrels.The 39 blitz king i shoot are 3850 fps; about 100fps faster than the v-max;but they drop off big time past 650 yds. Have not got any groups beyond 700 yds w/the B Kings .I found about 40 nosler 40 grainers i will probably try when it warms up .I've put 2515 through the krieger barrel in the last year,and 1531 threw criterion barrel since April.Did not realize i'd shot over 200 boxes of 204.It's probably good thing i didn't get criterion barrel on until 04-05-2018,or I'd be pushing 6000 rounds. STILL HAPPIER Than The Only BLOWFLY in a SLAUGHTER HOUSE Varget204
