This is another reason I certainly wouldn't take the challenge.
I don't have a dope chart to 2000 yds, and I actually don't even know what the bullet drop on a 750 gr .50 BMG cartridge is. Even with a ballistics calculator and chart, there is a good chance I wouldn't even get the correct bullet drop for 2000 yds in 10 attempts. Much less any of the other factors to actually get that to drop on a 6" circle. Depending on the BC of the bullet, a 750 gr A-Max seems to be around a -58.4 MOA, or -1,222.4 inch drop at 2000. Then there would be the trial and error for the other factors to adjust that call.
I *might take the challenge with a 8" circle at 800 with a .308 (Using a match-grade rifle and ammo), but I know that cartridge really, really well, and have proven dope charts and data for my holds and calls at that distance.
2000 yds with an M82 would be a total shot in the dark for me.

POLL: You get 10 shots to hit a circle target with a 6" diameter with a Barrett .50 cal sniper rifle from 2000 yards. Every shot you hit it you get $1M. If you don't hit you go to jail for 5 years. Do you take it?
