Get the one at 550?
My personal best is 650 yds, took me 2 rounds to adjust and nailed it on the third. (with my ruger m77 in .204- one fast and flat shooting mother!) it's get a csbelas 6-20 power Alaskan guide scope- which is supposedly made by leupold- and is set up for varmint hunting in the Sandhills (coyote, bobcat,etc.) so I'm looking at a rock river arms .223 with probably a reflex sight for closer quarters/quick target acquisition. Because I've had a problem with coyotes gettin in and out before acquiring them with such a large scope when not in the open range.
oh yeah, 5 rounds out of 6 were on target on the 550m one...with a 3-9x40 scope mind you, the white spot on the right is the 125m target, and the black down by it is a buddy that was spotting shot placement since I haven't gotten off of my butt and gotten a new spotting scope yet....and the 550m target was the size of a 1lb tannerite tub....so, pretty friggin tiny at that range.
my personal best....was probably on a closed range while in the army...and it was a door off of a hummer that was sitting at about 1800m from the firing line, and it was getting scrapped so they told me I could shoot at it, so I did, with a .50BMG, and was 3/3 on target (easy enough to tell, since there were 3 bullet holes all within about 2" of each other, and those were the only bullet holes ) with a personally owned weapon, I think 1100-1200m with a SR-25 .308 would have been it... 650yds with such a small caliber is pretty impressive
Just love the way they fit in my hand. Almost bought a Walther PPQ before I bought my full size 9, just didn't know if I could get used to that different mag release.
I'll get some pics of the Remington tomorrow. For now, I'll show off my plain Springfield 1911.
It may be plain, but it's all you need. I love a 1911, and I'll probably get a Springfield. Just gotta decide if I want nickel or blued. Decisions, decisions...

around here the .40 and .9 ammo is about the same price and pretty avaible reason i chose the .40 besides the power of them both.
Nope, no point yet, teachers can't even have in cars, to have a firearm within 1000' of a school is a felony as I recall.
Ditto, 9 makes a nice shock cavity, .40 makes a gaping hole the size of the 9's shock cavity
That's a crying shame!
Utah is one of only 6 states where it's allowed for teachers to CCW.
How many school shootings? How many accidental shootings by teachers? ZERO!
Most all CCW instructors are now giving free training classes to teachers and are overwhelmed with participants!
Ah, but they both will stop a bad guy.
