Default Anyone Here Shoot Precision Rifle?

I own and shoot many different types of guns, but I seem to get the most enjoyment out of shooting long range rifle. I'm fortunate enough to have a private range within 15 minutes of my home that has multiple platforms to shoot from. All of them have steel targets placed at various distances. Depending on the platform, I can shoot steel from 100-1375 yards. I love trying to place a relatively small group on a steel target at 900 yards, watch the impact through the scope, and hear the "gong" a few seconds later.

In the photo below, I'm shooting my Tikka Sporter chambered in .223. It's an awesome factory gun and groups well at 800 yards. I've taken it out to 1007 yards with great success, although the little 77gr bullet gets pushed around quite a lot at the distance. The rifle in the background is a Surgeon Scalpel in 6.5 Creedmoor.
