Hi,
I am finally building up a rifle for distance shooting (just punching paper, no hunting). There are clearly some very skilled people here so I wanted to get your opinions before I finalized my AR-10 clone build.
I’ve been plinking with AR15's, and am familiar with the system. In 08 I’m taking some rifle classes that require further reach than my AR15 can offer (out to 1000 yards). So I am building up an AR-10 clone lower (Fulton), and am having a custom shop build the upper. While I’m leaning towards .260, which would you guys choose for say out to 1000 yards?
They offer the following calibers for AR-10 conversions;
270 WSM, 260 REM, 284Win, 6.5 WSM, 7mm WSM, 300 WSM, 308 WIN Match
Any ideas would be most appreciated!
Many thanks,
