    I've had several rifles that were built with LR varminting in mind. 6.5x47L, 6x47L, 243AI and 6XC. Currently have a 6mm Creedmoor as a competition rifle and a 20 Tactical barrel for it. Actually considering doing a 224 Valkyrie to shoot 75-80gr projectiles for a heap of barrel life, high BC projectiles and low recoil.

    Best ever shot to date is 830m on a rabbit with my 6.5x47L Barnard Model 07 (long since sold). Shot a lot of rabbits with it in the 500m - 650m range with very good consistency. Best with my previous 20 Tactical was 460m but I plan to improve on this with my current setup.

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more
