And stop falsifying targets and distances. The only person that gets hurt is the shooter.
Don't be "That Guy" I never falsified anything.

Oh come on now, one day you’re telling guys the target is 700 then when no one buys it you confess that it’s only 500 when it turns out it’s really only 400 and post a picture with shots covered up. You’re bragging about finding a load that shoots with absolutely no vertical at all at 3 grains less then gold medal match.Don't be "That Guy" I never falsified anything.

This stuff hurts credibility.

No one is trying to be mean or spiteful, we long range shooters work very hard at our discipline and have far more terrible targets then good ones. You only compete against yourself and a wind flag and when the stars align and conditions are perfect we are blessed with a good performance, then we go back to work.
Put out a target with a sighter bull then five more bulls, once your sighted in shoot those five bulls with three to five rounds each- take a center to center measurement on each group then add together and devide by the number of groups for your average ( aggregate) that’s what’s happening on that day.I just want to chat and learn. That's all. I'll be the first to admit I'm green. I wanted to get the video equipment anyway so I would have it for myself.
I do not shoot that grouping at 500/400 yards everytime. I pick the best targets of the day and post them. I knew the grouping I was driving out to because I used a fellow shooters spotting scope.

At one thousand yards I’ve shot a 2.3 five shot group for record followed by a 4.6 my average was 3 something and good for second place THAT day period and to say I’m a quarter minute 1k shooter would be false.
I'm not going to be shooting past 1,000 yards.
Shoot your 308 for another few weeks, by then the barrel will be toast, then rebarrel it to 6 BR. Or if your 110 Precision is large shank (and I believe they’re supposed to be), then rebarrel to 300wsm.
You’re going to want to boost your load to keep you out of transonic transition. The supersonic shockwave smacks your bullet in the ass when it crosses into the transonic transition boundary, and you’ll be going transonic well before 1000.
