LMAO .416 Barrett cartridge with a 422-grain copper bullet was used so here are some options. .50 BMG .510 DTC .50 Fat Mac The .50 Fat Mac is a necked down cartridge is based on the 20mm Vulcan artilley/cannon round.

I don't even want to think about what that gun would cost - or the brass would cost, or the reloading would cost. .375 CheyTac is the answer for 2 miles. 3520 yards. Two miles. Let's do that first. Get 2 miles. We might be able to get a .338 LM there, but we'll need higher elevation for the base shot... We need land near Flagstaff, AZ, around 7k feet...
98Z5V Posted April 12, 2025 Report Posted April 12, 2025 It's all about Density Altitude, in making the 2 mile. 4.4 miles is just more luck, than skill...
Magwa Posted April 12, 2025 Author Report Posted April 12, 2025 maybe elon musk could send us up in one of his space ships we could fire the round in space and really set a new record? we need a target on the moon!

98Z5V Posted April 13, 2025 Report Posted April 13, 2025 Okay - that guy Sheppard. In the first few minutes of the video, he calls a reticle, a "RETICULE..." Warning signs. A RETICULE is a woman's handbag, with drawstrings... Here's a RETICULE... THEN... At around 39 minutes in that vid, he states that HE'S NEVER FIRED the rifle... What?!!? He's a bankroller. Moneyman. Nothing more. The warning signs were there...
Magwa Posted April 13, 2025 Author Report Posted April 13, 2025 sounds like us just having a fun time .......but with a lot more money spent...lol

OK - so my folks have a place up near Happy Jack - and I’ve got a spot near there where I shoot across a pretty good size meadow against a little mesa. I’ve never shot off of the top of the mesa - but based on what I’ve seen I wouldn’t be surprised if we could get 2 mile line of sight from the top / lip. The blue line on the attached image is a little over 2 miles. Maybe we get up there on a weekend some time when it’s stupid hot down here. Elevation is about 7200 ft… Edited June 19, 2025 by BigNate
