I sighted in at 100 yards and put a few shots in the bullseye. I don't have a pic of the target since the wind ripped it off the post and blew it away with a few other peoples targets
I mainly shot at 300 yards and 400 yards. It was extremely gusty that day with gusts from 13mph to 22mph. But I was consistently hitting a full size IPSC target at 400 yards. I tried ringing the smaller circle steel targets but it was too damn windy and we couldn't see where our shots were going.Shooting at the long distance ranges is a lot more fun since you manage yourself. There wasn't a dedicated range master for us and all the guys shooting were cool and we were allowed to manage our own down range target swapouts which was nice.
EDIT: Also shot 400 yards on a tripod sitting down. That was pretty tough since all your movement contributes to moving the rifle every which way instead of just up & down -slightly to the side when you're prone (kinda hard to explain via text). I thought tripod shooting was really cool and would make it easier. But we didn't shoot with it standing up, so that might be the issue there.

Bought a 1000 rounds of 9mm and 250 rounds of 45ACP hollowpoints from Freedom Munitions today. They are having a 5% off and free shipping sale today.
I also picked up a small Pelican camera case for $30 on Amazon to carry my Glock pistol around in.
Also got a Geissle reaction rod on sale to work on my AR's easier than the plastic crap I have now.

I'm interested in seeing the chrono numbers on the ozark ammo rounds. I exclusively buy from them for my blackout needs. Really can't beat the price on them. Post up some numbers if you get a chance. I ran another 30 through my blackout yesterday with no problems. I have at least a 1000 through mine now with no issues.

Which variety of theirs are you shooting? Also how long were your lead times? I'm gonna try shoot some through a crono with Zech and also shoot them into water at like 15 yards and 100 yards.

Well, went to the range yesterday. I can put ten 45s in a head in 8 seconds at 10 yards and put 5/6 44 mags in a head at 30 yards.

The shipping is really the only letdown from Ozark. It has taken up to 3 weeks in the past. I mainly shoot the 147 fmj and the 220g hpbt

I can probably hit the side of a barn with my sling shot....Texas CHL instructors teach COM, not head-shots and I would not boast about it on the www in case I was ever involved in a defense situation of my own, I would not want any extra legal attention.

Ok I have a 16in AAC upper and I was getting .75in groups at 100yds, that was with the cheaper Remington ammo, the nicer ammo or better brand ammo didn't perform as well. I will post what ammo I was using later, just can't recal
I have a 16" 300BO Ballistic Advantage barrel that groups really well with Supersonic Remington ammo. I shot the 220 grain subsonic Remington but it didn't group well. The 220 grain subsonic Remington Hog Hunter grouped a lot better surprisingly than the other 220g. I expected it to be about the same.
Ordered a 1000 rounds of 9mm FMJ and 250 rounds of .45ACP hollowpoint from Freedom Munitions. Hopefully I'll get it before the next black Friday sale . I've heard they can have terrible waiting times on ammo orders.
Also ordered a Impact Ballistics book for my 6.5 Creedmoor with a chart that's made specifically for my scope's reticle.
Also ordered a Giessle AR bar to work on my upper receivers. I'm not a big fan of the plastic ones I have now. They get the job done but can be a real PIA.
Also ordered a bubble level for my Vortex scope. And a wheeler's torque wrench for mounting my scopes. I'm tired of constantly borrowing my buddies wrench. I'm also finding more nowadays that a lot of items have a torque spec. So this will come in handy in other areas as well.
And lastly, I got a small pelican case for $30 to hold my Glock or other pistols in when I travel with them.
