There's this 48" x 82" Steel Buffalo named Homer at Ridgway Rifle Club in PA standing out there at 1000 yards
Took 10 rounds using the Big Lube 500gr original bullet ,among many other recipes, loaded with 65grs of Meteor Powder (vintage 1973) and a velocity of 1177fps, then started walking them to Homer. Three 'no cigars but close' and Three Klangs. Vernier setting - 229 MOA
And ... the rifle was my H&R Buffalo Classic - not my Pedersoli.
* ... The wind was gusting 20 -50 mph - 62 F and cloudy

The other dings on Homer were from a total of 34 hits using all the recipes that I shot
