Yes my scope is a mil-dot so I held over about 15 mils, with plenty more available. This was my first time using this scope, so I felt pretty good about the hit.
I used to shoot 1000 yards with blackpowder cartridge using a vernier tang sight and we had gotten pretty good with that.
But it was a real kick shooting at a target that you know is 1000+, but have no idea exactly how far. My range finder stops @ 600yds, so we went out to BP and picked up a Leupold that is supposed to go out to 1600 yards. It was a smoking sale that ends 12/1.

I thought about selling my weapons back to the government, but after a thorough background check it was determined that the buyer has a long history of violence and is mentally unstable. Therefore could not pass NICS.
