    There is also a 90gr round, I did some casual reading last night and really the amount of effort spent on the 223 to make it work and get the results it does is astounding, the wind though is ugly. I am not sure that the USA ranges get such variable wind as us?

    This was interesting and about the best piece I found,

    Who all is shooting a .223 long range? - Page 2

    The cheaper shooting is a big plus given how things seem to be going. Im quite tempted to try an AR15 at 600yds and less for the hell of it. Might cause a few heart attacks at Trentham though, "oh my god its a black thing that self ejects cases!!!!!" what the hell I like stirring complacent ppl.

    @Cyclops, with a 308w, 30inch barrel, lapua match case, Fed 210M, HBC 155gr projectile and 45gr2208 is just enough supersonic to register every time at the E-target. So if you are clocking 1200~1250fps should be OK. I have some e-targets around here somewhere.....
