Author Steeve Hugel "PRECISION SHOOTING AT 1,000 YARDS"
Very short translation
Pic.1 Brus Artus (left) and Creg Slack (right) try to shoot 16" steel gong at 3120 yards (.308 Ackley Improoved and .264 Win Mag)
Brus Artus from Colorado is author of longest registered shot at animal at 2632 yards, but it is not the end becouse his new scoupe mount lets shoot at more than 3000 yards
Pic2 Model 70 .264 Win Mag 30-inch Hart berrel of Creg Slack and Model 70 .308 30" Obermayer berrel Ackley Improoved, 16" gong at 3120 yards
Pic 3 Bullet mark from .308 at 3120 yards (Brus)
Brus has support of some manufacturers such as Leupold, Boots Obermayer, and Premier Reticles
Boots gave him berrels, Leupold 8.5-25x scoupe which was upgraded to 20-50x by Premier Reticles
Creg begun from .264 win mag 30" Hart barrel and Cierra 155 grain, recently he fixed chamber in 30" SS Bo Clerke for round .338 Lapua with 300 grain Cierra Matchking bullet. Winchester 70 action, Jewell trigger ajusted for 2 ounces, Dillon- MakMillan stock, Leupold 8.5-25x fixed to 20-50x, 85 grain powder IMR7828, velocity 2750 feet/sec
Pic 4 scoupe mounts made for Winchester 70 of Brus
Flatter trajectory of .338 Lapua helps Creg "not to buy hunt licence for ducks" and "make it safer for flying 747"
In the morning of May, 31, 2000 Creg and his wife (spotter) were shooting in windless preria on the East of Puablo.
Creg has shot preria dog sitting next to gong with 3rd shot
