It took 10-15 rounds to get on target, but this is what a 105AMAX will do to a beer keg at 1375yds. I was holding about 2 1/2 Mils for wind. This keg is about torso size for reference.

Sun was in our faces this was our attempt at an estimated 1650yds, but we couldn't pick up the impacts with the targets in the shade later in the day.

This was our initial set up before we went up the hill behind us. Closest target rack was at 700yds.

I was running my 243Win with 105AMAXs while the green rifle in the center was a 300WM with 208AMAXs and the closest one in the picture is a 7RM with 180 Berger Hybrids

I was trying to determine my cold bore for the 700yds rack. I was holding on a 10" plate, but ended up hitting a 1 gallon jug hanging next to it about .5mils to the left.
It was a long day and we worked some short range drills with pistols and AR's as well, but we didn't get any pictures of that stuff. I believe I will look into building a Magnum or RUM of some type when I get around to the next Bolt Action build if I have somewhere to stretch it out like this in the future. The little AMAXs from the 243 did impress me quite a bit though. as you can see on the impact above even though it went transonic nearly 200yds before this impact it was still holding true!
