I doubt this config would be my top choice in a windy place. 690yds is my max and it really starts falling off after 600yds. </div></div>
What kind of 55 grain are you shooting? what is the barrel on your 16"??? i'm not trying to call bs or stir shit, but if you can hit sub MOA with 55 grain in a 16" barrel , i wanna know how the hell you are making it happen.
I've taken my 18" CLE with a douglas barrel out to 650 with sub MOA results, but that is using 69gr and up.
Curious to get some intel on your situation here.

I was thinking the same thing. The "I only use 55gr'ers as I have a 16in barrel and it'll stableize them better." part has me scratching my head. Do you have a 1 in 12" twist barrel too? Sub 6" groups being the norm with any 55gr bullet is crazy good, I'd love to know what load you are using.
