    Long range target practice

    Just some long range shooting on video, decent bullet trace visible. 500yd water jugs, 850yd 18"x24" steel plate and 1000yd 12''x12'' rock.

    It all goes together and shows how to do it. Nice machine built for a purpose. Taking the NF out for a stroll to a thousand on a 12x12 target . Do you take it out for sheep at 10# ? Very nice videos including the hunting ones. Thanks for sharing.

    Re: Long range target practice

    I packed it for sheep this year but was my partners turn to squeeze. I passed a legal ram as well, wasn't prepared to pack two rams out unless a 40" showed up! It's around the same weight as my last rig so I'm used to the weight, have spent quite a bit of $ shaving weight on rest of gear. I'm sure it will pay off packing it around, it shoots far so less hiking

    Very Nice rifle and Very nice shooting. Might have been said already but what is your rifle chambered in?

    My old Custom shop R700 hit the scales at just over 13.5 and I took it goat hunting... once. My current rig weighs in at between 10-11, I pack that big ******* everywhere. One of these days I'll get around to building a Mountain Rifle.
