[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 207630, member: 313"] Quite frankly, the mathematical part of bullet dispersion is all theory. There are far too many variables involved to allow for a 1" group @ 100 yds to equate to a 6" group @ 600 yds. Bullet drop rarely matches the drop charts for many different reasons. The effect of wind on bullet flight is even more difficult calculate. The easiest way to answer your own question is to just post a target at 600 yds and see what the rifle can do. If you can't EASILY put almost every bullet in a target as small as a goat head, then you'd be unlikely to do it under field conditions. Good luck [/QUOTE]
