I am going tomorrow to shoot at a range that will have shots available out to 600 guaranteed maybe even 1000yds. I have a brand new 700P in .308, with a 10x mildot on it........
Anyway, the real trouble I have is that the range requires FMJ ammo ONLY. I was planning on shooting match ammo Federal Gold 168's and Black Hills 175 molys. Neither one of these is fully jacketed.....
Anyone know the best FMJ rounds to shoot at these distances? I will be shooting a bunch to get zeroed, etc, as the rifle has never been shot.
Should I just find some milsurp or should I get some factory loaded FMJ? What grain bullet is best out to 600?
Thanks,
Ed
