New world record shot. 3 freaking miles!

For real! Would you really want to spot for the guy at those ranges? A little to much wind, no telling how far the bullet can go off course .
I know! Just trying to be sensible! No telling how many purchases I've made on whims that never were very fruitful!
Hitting anything with a rifle from 3 miles is a feat, but here's what I think should be the definition of practical accuracy for extreme long range rifles.
From a cold bore, first shots of the day, all on the record, with no warm-up or sighters or fouling shots...
Hit a target the size of a household door (80" tall, 36" wide) with a majority of your shots.
The number of shots fired could be as little as 3, or as many as 10.
With 3 shots, 2 need to hit the target (somewhere, anywhere). If you shoot 10, at least 6 must hit.

DON'T DO IT BROTHER! It will probably be broken when ya take it outta the box!
Impressive, no question, a bit academic though. I agree there needs to be limits to how many rounds can be tossed downrange to be considered "practical accuracy".
Three strings of three, min 2 hits per string.
