300 Blackout to 600 yards

I like stuff like this.

45-70 to 1,000 yards, 22 LR to 300 yards, 32-20 to 400 yards.

I've seen YouTube videos on all those, and find the challenge of even just elevation to be impressive, much less for windage conditions.

Of course even if the gun is consistently accurate at long ranges, unless you know your range VERY accurately you will not have a first-round hit.

The subsonic rounds seem disappointingly inconsistent at longer ranges though.

I set up a Henry H001 .22 lr with a Lyman rear sight to give me a chance at 300 yards and found the results interesting. While I could dial in the elevation, the wind made the prospect of actually hitting what you were aiming at almost random. Even when there was no apparent wind at all the drift between shots at 300 yds was measured in feet, not inches.

Maybe an indoor range with the ventilation turned off would allow one to shoot at those ranges but outside in the real world 300 yds is a joke. Don't get me wrong. I shoot my Henry at 100 to 125 yds every time I take it out and at that range the drift is much more predictable shot to shot.
