what goes into making a long range shot
The London Times says the latest record distance is 8120 feet, fired with a .338 Lapua Magnum rifle, while Furlongâs was 7972 feet, fired with a .50 caliber rifle. Harrisonâs distance reportedly was verified by a GPS reading. I thought youâd find it interesting to see what goes into making such an extreme-range shot. Furlong used a McBros Tac 50 rifle while Harrison fired an AI .338 Lapua Magnum. Iâve fired both rifles, along with a host of .50 calibers and .338 Lapua Magnums, and personally own a Savage Model 110 BA in .338 Lapua Magnum.
