Awesome Dougie .223 at 900 yards that about the limit before you need a mortar computer to place your shot. You must have done some scope winding to get it on target.
If you want to read an article by people who know nothing about .223 ballistics. take a look at this one: Hated army assault rifles unlikely to be sold - National - NZ Herald News
Ok it IS the NZ herald who are all about sensation and not much more but how can you say: "A 2011 Ministry of Defence study found the rifles were not powerful enough to "identify accurately adversaries" and was "ineffective at ranges greater than 200m"?I have to admit hating the Steyr but this article is at best very funny at worst highly embarrassing.

She loves the free fresh wind in her hair; Life without care. She's broke but it's oke; that's why the lady is a tramp.
