WTF? You a marine sniper in Afghanistan? I cant even see that far.


Ha ha. No.

In fairness though, I've never taken a shot in a hunting situation beyond 500 yards. I just like to know that I can.

I had to pass on an extremely nice Himilayan Tahr one time because I couldn't close the distance. I promised myself that I wouldn't be in that situation again because of a lack of gun.

It's not overkill, I'm doing long range shots. And I've had professional machinists and gunsmiths tell me it's possible, but may be a little too hot. Shows what most of the frickers on this board know.

If you've never take a shot beyond 500 yards, you have zero chance of hitting anything at 1500 no matter what hardware you're holding.
