Starting to think you are a tease.
1000 yds. How much interest?

I can be.
I highly recommend E Silhouette every 100 yards. In my experience with people shooting on my 800 yard range, most hit a wall between 500-700 yards. It is almost twice as difficult hitting the 800 as it is hitting the 700, and it will only get worse as you go out further.

It's the end of the rainbow and wind starts to really have an impact.

Yeah 30.06 is like that about 100 or so yards later. You should look into them for more distance.
When I was down at the Juliff range (Bayou Rifles) this past weekend I popped over to the 1,000 yard range just to take a look. Man, that is a lo-oo-oo-ong way to go. Even the 600 yard distance looked tough.
Glad I don't think I have the money to get into that game!

No comment.
As soon as API bullets are available for it the .50 BMG will probably disappear into the sunset..........How about .338?
Challenge accepted. When and where?
Hmm - .243 at 500 yards. -32.39" drop. .308 -56.41" with a 100 yard zero.
If we're just trying to ring steel - meh. At least I've got one of those in one of the safes.
I was hitting steel at 600 with 77gr Mk262, and it barely make enough noise to let you know you hit. You need something around 14X to get a visual on the paint. I didn't know I hit it until I drove down and looked at the target.
