[QUOTE="mitch260, post: 1257753, member: 53720"] Thanks! Yes, I think there were 4 or 5 guys that progressed all the way to the 3400 yard target. There were no hits on the 3400 yard target, and this isn't a hidden fact. A couple shots came close, but the impact area was making it very difficult to spot impacts, so we just kept making guesses. We had an impact within about 3 feet of the target with the .375 Lethal and the new Berger prototype. And again, keep in mind just how small the target is, the time constraints, and the limited number of shots. A lot of the press releases focused on us pulling off first round hits on every target out to 2500 yards. The King of 2 Miles started out as a way to demonstrate ELR shooting under time and shot constraints and rewards making hits in less shots. The goal is to achieve 2 mile hits in these conditions on demand, not get a hit in 40 shots over the course of a day on a 2 or 3 moa target. The King of 2 Miles is a race to achieve this type of consistency driven by competition. Its 2 years in the making, and I don't think anyone expected to get there right away. [/QUOTE]
