I decided to mount a Leupold VX-III 8.5-25x50mm Long Range scope (that wasn't seeing much use) onto my RRA Elite Car. The intent was to hit some steel poppers at ranges from 200 to 600 yards. My shooting buddy chuckled when he saw this large scope on a 16", chrome lined AR15.
I proceeded to whack the heck out of some prairie dog steel poppers at 600 yards with very average Remington UMC 55 gr FMJ ammo. I threw a 12" Shoot-N-C onto a target and shot this 10 shoot group at 600 yards. ( Three true flyers). Nothing spectacular but I could hit COM all day long. I was amazed that I did this well using a short barrel (non-free floated)that is chrome lined and with very average ammo.
