I was at my long range spot working on a load for my 7mm mashburn early spring this year . a pick up came into view so I stopped shooting . the truck was making it's way to me . I though great , the ground must have been sold and I'm getting the boot . a young fella gets out and starts talking guns and shooting . tells me about an area he and his Dad have set up that goes out to about 900 yards . I told him I can get 1600 here , but I keep getting interrupted . he tells me his place is back in a ways , and seldom see anyone . he gives me his name and number . it took me a couple months before I called him , I had a project going on at Mom's house I had to finish . we finally get hooked up . by now they have moved to another spot , and have a dandy range set up . it's a long range shooters playground . targets from 800 - 1600 yards . we are against a coal stripping job , that will be finished and backfilled this fall . when this is backfilled I think we can get 2800 - 2900 yards . we found a place we shot 2045 from a few weeks ago . last weekend we found a place to shoot 2375 . since we have been shooting 2000+ yards we put a bigger target ( 34" square ) beside the 1600 target (24"square) for the longer shots . here are a few pics .since I've taken the 800 - 1600 picture , we've added targets at 1090 , 1190 , 1240
