Hello all,
I have recently had an urge to shoot at 1 mile I think I have a rifle capable of it that rifle I’m question is a savage Model 12 target, F class,
Or something of that nature it is chambered in 6.5x284 with a 30 inch truck axle of a barrel it is a single shot with a large heavy stock it’s main purpose as far as I can tell is 1,000 yard competition but I haven’t tried that yet because I need a scope so let’s dive into that!
what scope would you recommend
What features would you recommend
How would you start getting ready to shoot at this distance
budget for the scope is $3,500
My goal is to eventually hit the milk jug at 1 mile some of you may know what I’m referring to here and the ultimate goal is to do it in as few shots as possible thank you for reading and for your thoughts
