How in the world you can shoot at 400 yrds/m with Iron sight??!!! :shock: :shock:
The standard USMC Known Distance (KD) course of fire includes shots at 500 yards with a standard M16 and those who are issued M-4s shoot them at that distance. Those quals are done with iron sights. I have shot, and hit, at that distance with an issued M16. I was a chaplain and got to shoot at the range often. I have seen many kids shoot 10 of 10.
M16 had 2-rear ghost posts, one is 100 and second at 300, to shoot at 500 how do you use the rear ghost ring?

First, the drop of the 223 even at 400 yrds is 27" (6 MOA) and the wind drift at moderate 5 MPH is 10" (2.5MOA)
Even if you get the drop perfect, the wind would make you miss at 400-500 yrds.
Did you have an "aiming" target and an "impact" target?
Did you have a spotter?

Re: Your Longest Shot

400 yrds, target shooting, 8" target.

Bring yours to our nearest 500 yards range and let us have fun time ringing some steel.

What rifle was he talking about? is it a custom rifle? what Optics is on top?
