[QUOTE="Stovetop535, post: 1840635, member: 104346"] Curious what people have found regarding Hornady 168 Eld M ammo and the effective range? Im shooting an AI AT chambered in 308 with a 20 inch barrel with a vortex razor on top. The gun shoots really well out to 600 yards, then from 600 and out doesnt group at all. Last week we were shooting 2/3 scale torso targets, 100 500 and 725 yards. 500 yard target grouped very nicely. Dial up to the target at 725 and I can see impacts all aroud the target, both high and low followed by left and right. I had 5 hits in a row, followed by 10 misses that were all over the place. Another accomplished shooter, who I consider a better long range shot than myself, had the same happen to him. Is this possibly the result of the ammo and 20 inch barrel? Thanks Alex [/QUOTE]
