Shooting the mile

[Dave Roelle]

Any idea of maximum bullet height for a mile gotta be up there a way's

[Kenny Wasserburger]

Around 220 Feet above the line of sight according to Dan T's calculations. 6.9 Seconds Time of flight, that was for my Mono-groove bullet at 1390 FPS. My PP load at 1368 fps actually was same bullet weight required 40 thats right you read it correctly 40!!! MOA less elevation to be on target.!

Don't think I could even SEE a target at a mile off.
Just how big is a "mile target" for BPCR?
