All right guys, I had a small discussion today with a fence sitter who had seen the movie Shooter.
You might be able to guess how the conversation went, so I'll skip it. Point is, I had to say "I don't know" a couple of times.
So, my question is: What are the current best long distance records in the world for score (NOT for group). My point was that having a small group on a piece of paper is entirely different than having that group on top of the bullseye.
I don't care what country it was set in. I don't care what class it was (even if it was a benchrest railgun). I'm NOT looking for the sniper "one shot" distance records, though. I'm interested in the "best normal capabilities of current technology," if that makes any sense.
1000 yards would be best, 3 or more shots, bipod records would not be amiss, either.
Sorry to bug you guys with a demand for info like this, but it irked me that I didn't know.
If anybody could fill me in or point me to a resource, it would be greatly appreciated.
Rifles aren't really my main interest.
