NO DISRESPECT & DON'T TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY, BUT shooting well WAY OUT to 800 yards is not something you can just do well without a good gun, good glass & A LOT of practice. Plan on spending more $ on ammo to learn how to shoot at that distance than that rifle will cost, WAY MORE, especially if you don't reload. The same goes for a scope suited for the task. That kind of equipment doesn't come cheap & I sure wouldn't look to pinch penny's or find a good gun/scope suitable for 800 yards at a big chain store. I'd be looking for a specialty used gun being sold by an exp'd long range shooter that can give you info on loads that work well at that distance, with THAT PARTICULAR gun. That info alone can save you hundred's of $'s in trial & error on ammo My advice, take a step back, slow down, be more realistic on your expectations & speak with someone that you KNOW has ACTUALY DONE IT, for advice on equipment & where to get it, NOT someone that claims they have done it on the net. IMO, think baby steps & LOT'S of practice. Good luck, it aint gonna happen overnight, or on the cheap.
