I'm building a AR 10 6.5 and hopefully one of them can get it out to 1 mile for me. That's a long reach for a gas gun and 6.5 in any platform.

2 miles serious biz, Coriolis comes into play
guns starting to look more like cannons
Huge glass
BIG PILLS and a free shoulder massage at each squeeze of the trigger.
My longest shot was 1375 meters with 300winmag..
it was a first shot hit, no doubt thx to the windcouching of the norwegian besides me .. reading wind in a fjord is very close to black magic..
It's not like in a green flat area with leaves and trees. or a desert in the morning when there is no wind.
Shot was a hit, i figured, no way to improve on that.. and called it a day
