Default 5" at 500

Shot a 3 shot group a 500 yds that was inside 5
inches. With my mod 700 in a 300 rum they dropped 36" First time shooting it at that range. Had to tell someone.

Ive only tried shooting 500 off the bench a couple times. It was a little too windy for my little 110 grain .270 bullets to shoot any groups but I banged a 6 inch gong a few times. Fine shooting sir, what load were you using?

Makes me wish I had a range that long around here.

Good shooting for the first time, it gets easier with practice.


Bone stock Rem 308 SPS V bolted up in a AICS 1.5 at 600yards. Shot prone off a bipod using 168 SMK/Varget.... grouped slightly under 2".
