    Any advice?

I fired ten rounds into a 3.8 inch circle at 1000 yards with my ol' trusty Remmy that I bought from WalMart, and thought I might have set some sort of record.

    Is it worth reloading 5.56 for plinking?

    Re: Is it worth reloading 5.56 for plinking? I reload so that I can shoot, but more importantly I shoot so that I can reload!!! As far as plinking goes, are you not ALWAYS aiming at some sort of target? And do you not get satisfaction out of hitting as close to your point of aim as...
