I made hits with hardly any wind at 800 yds with 80 gr hornady A-max bullets in a 1x7 savage single shot 223 . l put a 22-250 1x8 twist barrel on a ruger target gun that was originally a 25-06. it was fairly easy to make hits once zeroed. that was before the 260 was availableThe rifle belonged to @Zak Smith - he was my instructor and I borrowed his rifle for a few hours.
IIRC it was a 24" barrel shooting 134gr Scenars, but that was a while back. Wyoming is great for long-range shooting. Georgia? Not so much, so I don't do this as much as I'd like to.
