I'm on several boards.
This one, where I get a lot of good solid info. Sniper's Hide for the PX. A couple of local ones. And others that I'm a member on but rarely check in to.
On one of the local boards, there is a guy looking for a "5.56 Bolt Gun" and 2 pages of discussion. The consensus is; If you're gonna shoot "LONG RANGE" you need a bigger/better caliber.
I compete with the .223 in mid-range FTR. It is capable of punching paper to 1K (My current load is at least). In NJ, where I live, 1K is the farthest we are getting to unless one takes a VERY long drive to somewhere else. And even so, 1K is not a short ride. Realistically most guys in the NJ Metro will shoot 300 99% of the time. And that is the farthest they will shoot.
I don't understand why, in anyone's world, they are forced to believe that to shoot past 100 yards they need a 408 CheyTac. Is it just everyone taking everyone else's word? Just dis-information being spread willy-nilly around the interwebs? I don't know why it bothers me as much as it does, but it does bother me.
I will sleep tonight, I promise.
But, it does bother me.
Rant off...
