I have read about some people shooting gongs (and a ground hog) with 308s at 3000+ yds, using special scope mounts. Maybe with a Whisper, you could take the shot, hop in the car and drive up to watch...

With an extreme spread of only 11fps, I dont think there will be much verticle stringing. I will wait to see if anyone does OK with Trail boss, otherwise, I might go to the N320 powder as well.
