Hi all,
Great forum you have here. I am wanting to explore some long range shooting this year and not sure if I have is adequate. As of now I will start with a 500 yard max. I would also like to start with the rifles I currently have if possible. I have a Remington 700 30-06 with a 4x12 Vortex Crossfire 2 and an Ar15 with a MP 1/8 twist 5r free floated 16" barrel, carbine gas, 3x9 p223 glass. Both rifles have decent aftermarket triggers. I do not reload as of yet, hopefully will get to that soon.
Will my current gear work for punching paper and steel with reasonable results out to 500 yards?
If not, what kind of upgrades would be best to start with? I would say budget to $500 as of this moment.
Looking forward to your comments and suggestions.
