Strip are you claiming to get 5" groupings at 1000yds with an actual firearm or a paintball gun?  Just to be clear.  Your original post appeared to be claiming with a paintball gun, but the latest does not.

The names didnt give it away?

The only way a paintball would travel a 1,000 yards is if it was dropped from 3,000 feet in the air.

Of course this is with a firearm....

Sorry strip, the way I read it sounded like you meant you had achieved that with a paintball gun (you hadn't mentioned firearms at all in the post where you first said it).
I'm unfamiliar with paintball jargon so I just skipped over this
With 338 Wildcat round (bc in the .9 range depending on velocity) ....basically 300 Ultra Mag necked out to 338.
as technical speak that I shouldn't try to wrap my head around, I never tried looking at it in the context of a firearm... seems obvious now :)

True.....sometimes the clarity inside my brain reads like a dense fog to others.

Ok good that that's cleared up, here motherland and I were thinking you were a total moron :D.  Turns out it's the opposite.
