Ruff El, you're still talking about small margins of error at 8,000 yards. I'm not arguing it can't be done, but it requires the use of spreads (either longitudinal or divergent) to guarantee hits. 1 degree of angle is equal to 140 yards at 8,000 yards. There are lots of ways to accumulate 1 degree of error in your target track over 8,000 yards. 0.5 knots of speed miscalculated, slightly missing the AoB. Missing the range by just a hair. Changes in target action after the shot.
