[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 566682, member: 5302"] The ammo was Australian arsenal ammo with their version of the standard 7.62 NATO 147-gr. FMJBT bullet that left at about 3000 fps from our 30-inch barrels. We had figured its drift to be about 8 inches per mph of cross wind at 800 yards (I corrected my earlier post); the range a Palma match starts at. Bullet drop at 800 was about 200 inches; 25 MOA on the rear sight. Australian rules didn't allow spirit levels on front sights so holding windage was not easy. A one degree cant on the rifle caused about 6 inches of horizontal shift in impact. [/QUOTE]
