Over the past 2 weeks, I've taken this down to NS Range again and shot from 300-800yds with it.
Friday, I took my little kids shooting for the first time, and just grabbed a few blasters that would be fun. Started them off on a .22 LR rifle and let them sit in my lap while I shot anything bigger.
We went over to Buffalo Canyon and I tackled the 800yd buffalo right out of the gate, got a register, then put rounds on it with at least an 85% hit rate including the sighter, using Federal 120gr OTM Match this time just to see where it would be. Temp was 53˚F.
Impact was just above the 800yd stadia line for 5.56 M855 from a 14.5-16" barrel.
After letting the kids hear the impact on steel at 800yds several times, I dropped down to 450yds, all hits.
This was all done using a 25rd magazine as a monopod off my rifle case on a bench, pretty wobbly. This little gun is going to shoot really well off a bipod.
