[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 253826, member: 3733"] Jacob, a .223 is not really an 800 yard gun, unless you have an 8 or 9 twist and shoot the heavier match bullets 69 grains on up. Most sporter wieght rifles come with a 1-12 twist, for shooting 40-55 grain bullets. With practice those can be shot accuratly to 500 yards in calm winds. Find out your twist rate, this is needed info. Trigger work may be all you need if it's already sub 1/2" [/QUOTE]
