[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 171072, member: 8873"] The Army says 800meters, the Marines 1000yards(915meters) and over 1000 for our crew served weapons. The thing is we don't care about a quick humane kill (bad as that sounds). You are trying to take the guy out of the fight, unless he is a priority target and that is a different matter. A hit will more then likely take him out and a couple of his buddies to aid him. I wouldn't personally shoot big game at 1000 yards. The ballistics just aren't there. External or terminal. Now, varmints or terrorists I have no problems with. [/QUOTE]
