I have a White Oak upper 1:7 twist in .223 (Wylde actually). RRA lower.
I expect to get out a half a dozen times only to a full 600 yard range for High Power Service rifle shooting.
That said, I will have access to my 100 yard range to develop rifle loads as well as shooting their reduced yardage matches.
My question is what to do about the 300 and 600 yards when I get out there?
What does one do to prepare loads that will be tested on the 100 yard range that can be reliable to hit well at 600?
55gr at 100 might be great, but heavier bullets probably be better. Does one pick a heavy bullet (knowing it will be shot at 600) and choose its best group at 100 yards?
