There are better choices for 600 yards, you want both accuracy and minimum wind drift.I thought the 77 grain Sierra matchkings were the standard. I have good enough results with just about any of the 69-77 grain bullets that I run what I can find cheap. Right now that's the Barnes match burner 69.
at my home range a Mossberg mvp holds the record at 900 yds with a 70gr berger and varget powder. 4.59in 5 shot group @ 900yds.I have a trued Remington 700 SS action with a 26" Bartlein M24 contour 8 twist barrel in an XLR carbon chassis, and I'm shooting 75 gn. Hornady Match HPBTs into a 1/2 MOA at 100 yards with 5 shot groups. I'm looking to improve on this with another bullet in the 75-80 gn range. What are the competition guys running in this chambering? I know this rifle can shoot better than 1/2 MOA. I have a 308 that I can shoot in the 0.3s - 0.4s, so I know that it isn't me. I shoot paper at 100 and steel from 300 to 600. I tried the 75 gn. A-Maxs, and the rifle didn't like them.
Cherry picked or not, that's nice.Here's a (admittedly cherry picked) target from the 2017 FClass MR Nationals that I shot using the 90vld in 223 Rem at 600yards. It was the 2nd highest score of the match (vs alot of 308s shooting 200.20x). Shows the 90vlds potential.
Search his posts. You'll read for hours. Drew has the 90vld nailed down.Cherry picked or not, that's nice.
