I took my .223 out to 1000 yd. today testing some Hornady 80 gr. AMAX's .
Specs:
Rem. 700
Rock Creek 1/8 at 20" heavy varmint? ( .930 dia. @ muzzle)
HS Precision pst-025 stock
Nightforce ATACR 5-25
Conditions.
29 degrees F
2000 ASL + / -
Wind was head on shooting due west , shifting slightly to the right.
Load:
Lapua brass
Wolf primers
25.2 gr. of Varget
80 gr. AMAX / C.O.A.L 2.500
I was holding center mass , hitting slightly right with .4 mils of left windage .
And a little high with 9.7 mils of elevation off a 200 yd. zero.
Overall very happy with the 80's as this is my first time trying them at range.![DSCN0856.jpg DSCN0856.jpg](https://www.snipershide.com/shooting/data/attachments/10/10011-e0c797524ebc77cb315c83a857249a82.jpg)
