[QUOTE="No.343, post: 718505, member: 296"] We shot many military matches using 55 gr bullets out of 1:7 twist M-16s. They shot well the majority of the time. We used them at 500 and 600 yard line. The wind was obviously a challenge. My understanding for not allowing the 55 gr in the OKCGC high power range from the 600 yard line is that the bullets come in at such a steep angle that they strike very low on the berm. You can imagine how scary that would be if you are pulling in the pits. [/QUOTE]
