I haven't even explored what it will do with 123gr SMK, 123gr Scenar, 123gr ELD-M, 130gr ELD-M, 130gr VLD, or 130gr RDF from a bipod with more magnification.
That pistol of yours inspired me to build one (3rd iteration actually...) to try and do similar.

Until yesterday I'd only been able to shoot it to 300 yds at a public range but that, LabRadar and Strelok Pro got me enough data to get hits from 100-600 yds at a local PRS style "AR" match. Target sizes varied but think the smallest was 4" @ 200 (part of a KYL rack and it was moving from hits on the other plates). A bowling pin shaped plate at 310 yds was also on the small side for the distance. The 90 second time limit and actually finding the targets were the difficulties for me. Provided I held where my dope said I hit and with much more impact visibility than any of the 5.56 users.
