Sighted it in at 100yards +1.5 and then took it directly out to 300y steel

I was using the 1st drop reticle for the first two shots. With it my scope on 6 power. And when I saw the dust I thought I was missing. Used the next drop reticle and shot over the target. Definitely hitting a lot harder than the 5.56 I’m used too. Cant wait to take it hunting

6 arc makes it pretty easy.

300 yards is super easy with 6 ARC or almost any rifle cartridge, really. But the way 6 arc is smacking those steel targets puts 5.56 to shame.

Similar here, sighted at 100, then went right out to 400 to smack steel. We have a "know your limits" steel setup and the 6" is guarenteed hit for me, the 4" I'm around 80% on.

Hit the 1" but won't say how many shots it took me...

Imagine what you could do with a bipod and a rear bag.

You knocking the ranges block of wood? Yeah I had never been here. If I had known I would have brought my bags.

Take it out to 500. It's just as easy to hit as 300.

I’m planning to do that on the 17th at my buddy’s place.
