#10 8.56 lbs. from 900 yards!

146 clicks, 18 1/4 MOA, elevation required from my 200 yard zero. .243AI with the 105 gr.A-Max at a chrono-ed 3200 fps MV. First shot was another 10-15 yards farther but I couldn't get a good laser reading. It was down feeding and I couldn't spot the hit but was close enough to make it scurry back to it's hole. It wasn't long before it came back up sitting pretty! There I got 895 at a fence post close so I called it 900 and sent it. I saw the dust fly in it's general area but couldn't claim a hit. Man that's a long walk to verify but it sure put a big smile on my face when I saw it laying there!

Not quite 1000 Bill but I hope to make that Club soon as I spotted some areas and setups to reach it!
 
A big hearty CONGRATS, MrM. And doesn't it give you a warm fuzzy feeling to nail one at that yardage?
If you've got some 1000+ yard locations scouted, I have no doubt you will be in the 1000 yard club by summer's end. The hard part is ranging them at that distance if the field does not have a nice slope to it.
DANG. I've got to get my 'To Do' list shortened and get out in the fields. Time's a wastin'.
 
Sweet!!! Awesome shooting, here in Pa the Yotes all but cleaned out our Ghogs the last 10 years or so I have resorted to shooting paper ones as of late haha. I did get permission to do some hunting here locally but its hard to find any shooting out past 500 yards.

Keep up the good work!!

I just want to know what pattern of "camo" that is on the stock, and who did it? Sure makes that gun shoot great! I like it!

Yes!

To get in the Varmint Hunter's 1000 yard club you need another member there to witness the shot. I have been in the 500 yard club for decades but when I do make that rare 1,000 yard hit on something there's no one around.

You did good.
