How does your .243 shoot at 1000 yards?

[ba_50]

I thought it would be interesting to get some results using either factory or re-barreled .243 rifles at 1000 yards. Best consistancy with winds 10mph or less, what type of rest (bench or bi-pod) The wind speed should be mentioned for comparisons.

What is your rifle/scope combination, your load, dies used, etc.

If I left something out just add too it.

Shot F Class three years ago with a .243 Savage 12FV, Bushnell 4200 6-24 Tactical scope, Farrell 20 minute base, Burris Z-rings, Harris bipod.

Won the Friday Factory Division Agg (300, 500, 900, 1000) at the 2008 Ontario Championships.

Load was Win brass and primers, SMK 107s, 46.5 gr RL25, chronod at 3050 fps. COAL 2.840. Used RCBS Competition dies.

Needed 6 minutes of correction in a 10 mph cross wind at 1000 yds.

Was a great rifle when the center tie-breaking ring was one minute. Now the center ring is 1/2 minute and the 12FV is not competitive. Had to go to a custom 6AI.

I've done very well with mine at 1k. I shoot br with it. In 2009 I finished 6 overall in the 2 gun at the world open in williamsport. This year at the Pa State 1k shoot I finished 16. I shoot 115 bergers, a rem. 40x worked over, jewell trigger and a broughton 7 twist with a vias break.
