oh, feel free to go on, I'd LOVE to hear your vast knowledge on the subject.Nevermind....ain't worth the effort.
for whatever it's worth, i end up blowing through ~ 3500-4000 sierra 77's a season, and I'd say I'm a fair shot (High Master isn't exactly a cakewalk shooting a service rifle @ full distance across the course).
77's will NOT shoot accurately @ 1000yds. at 800 they may hold their own....but they lack the ballistics to stay stable @ 1k.
let me guess, you're using Sierra's Infinity software, and loading data with G1 tables? well hell at that rate my 80's ought to shoot subMOA out to 1200 yards (which...sadly, they don't)
if 77's were worth a damn @ 1k, don't ya think the US army marksmanship unit would still be running a .223 for long range? (they're not, they ramped 80-90gr bullets as fast as they'd go, then gave up and moved to the M110 variants in .308.)
