I got to the range around midday and decided I wasn't leaving until it was shooting some good groups at 100 yards. Took me a while to get the sights dialed in, but with the help of a spotter these are my last 8 rounds I fired for the day. All shot at 100 yards, M193 5.56mm GI issue ammo (22.5gr IMR-4198), 82°, 20mph wind gusts (yikes), all through the GI irons sights on an issue Colt M16A1 rifle. All in all I'm pretty proud of this rifle, and I love the hell out of it. The best shooting iron sight rifle I've ever fired. Suck it Kalashnikov.

I have a long range AR for target shooting. I just couldn't be happier with this thing. I'm pretty sure I could group at 1" without the wind and in less of a rush. It was also about 400 rounds deep without a cleaning and pretty hot at the time.First hand witness at the failure of public healthcare.

Good shooting, I really enjoy shooting with iron sights.
I challenge you to a marksmanship challenge. I only have one gun, but it'll get 'R' dun.

Great groupings, and it sounds like you had a good time shooting. I want an AR bad, but there's no chance having a TX ID in California.
Maybe next time I'm in Dallas for business I'll have to stop in to the bullet trap and pick one up. Just gotta be sure that it's cali compliant.

Does anyone remember the program that calculates groups, MOA, etc. etc.. I forgot the name of it."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin
