AR15 @ 1000yds

Kodiac, plenty of folks using the 308 and 223 at 1000 yards! Best look at the postings for the NRA National Matches 223 will get ther just fine. Using 80 plus gr vld Very Low Drag bullets! the plama is fired with the 308 all the time only leagal cal. Ranges 800 to 100 yards cleans are fired very often! I have shot this stuff since 1988 and the 308 is plenty of gun. But the 223 has made some very good inroads bullet wt and barrle twist are the Keys. I still like the 308 but have been since shooting the 6.5X55 since 92 and was one of the first 6.6 shooters in the Wimbelton Cup In 92 Marines took a great deal of interest. As have others Mid Tompkins and Wife nancy have been using 6.5-284 with a great deal of succuss! and the Brits shoot out to 1800 plus with 308 all it is is reading wind and knowing traj.. I have went ot old stuff big bores 45-110 and shoot out to 1200 yards have my own range on the family ranch. See last issue of Precision Shooting for the 1800 yard plus 308 shooting! kenny Wasserburger
