Range Report My rig loves Federal Gold Medal Sierra 175 gr Match King BTHP

[AllWorkAndNoPlay]

Sent 30 rounds down range today at Frontline Defence and must recommend this range in Warrenton, NC. Best I’ve seen!

A little windy but otherwise a beautiful day at the range

 

[AllWorkAndNoPlay]

The wind had me fooled for a couple rounds but got on steel at 523 yards after 2.



50% or 3 outta 6 while figuring out a pretty gusty cross wind from left to right...

Have you qualified for the 1k yard range? Shooting at full size targets on the 500 is just warm up

Here’s the second set

Your rig and just about everybody elses loves the sweet heroin of FGMM 175.

Look for $17/box with free shipping from Palmetto and Target Sport for your fix.

What are the specs on the rig?

 

[Supersubes]

What PM said.

And i’ll add, if your 308 doesn’t like FGMM, it’s probably broken.

Mine likes the FGMM 168, but it likes the 175 better.
