5in group at 1,000 yds.
There’s not 10 people on FR that can do that, or have ever done that.
No matter the equipment.
My brother in law does 3” groups at 1000 yds. He lives and shoots near El Paso,TX.
That’s ½ MOA. Entirely doable by someone with good (not rare) equipment, cooperative weather, and a few days to train.
But many that can equal his performance with the ‘03A4. A nation of deer hunters.
Yes, I do that all the time.
4.5 inches 1000 yards with 6,5 creed.
2.5 inches with 300 Norma mag.
Shoot coyotes while they are on a full run all the time 800 to 1100 (way my land lays), and one I got a few years ago was a full mile and a dead run.
Few weeks ago, took a coyote that was sitting facing my deck at barely under 1500 with the 300.
PM me if you want to know more about equipment etc.
I love the old snipers, that’s how I learned.
