Is there any general consensus regarding bullet weight and accuracy in a FAL or does it just depend on the particular rifle and shooter? Given Federal match grade ammo, for example, is there any correlation between weight and accuracy? I guess this would apply equally to all calibers but since I'd like to compete with the DSA SA58 I'm getting I figured I'd ask specifically in .308.
Also, on a side note, given 'only' 300 yards and smallest target size of about 2 inches do you think that a FAL has a shot of winning against other rifles in an open class competition or do you think you would be spinning your wheels even if you were a better rifleman than a guy with say a 7mm mag?
