I think it's do-able.

Ha, I was commenting on the deer shot at over 400 yards mentioned by wardaddy... A shot on a human target at 2400 is beyond my capabilities...

Although...Carlos Hathcock made a >2000 yard shot using a modified M2...of course he had aiming stakes and travers/elevation equipment on the M2 to improve the odds...

Wow works for me...

Incidently, shortly after joining the conversations on FR I went off on Travis concerning the abilities of a .50 at 2000+ yards on a moving target...that post sounded quite a bit like yours and gave me a chuckle...

take care,

Jim

Well I know for a fact that a .50 can take out a tank at a mile.

Peter Jennings reported it, so it must be true.
