This is to update and answer the question posed in my other thread.
Yes you can take Cast loads too 200 yards. And you can actually hit a target!
As some of you know from my other thread I've been working up a viable load that will fiunction in the AR platform. Purpose -cheap target/plinking /varmit that fully function action as intended.
The Firearm: 16" DPMS HBAR Carbine/ AT lower/stock trigger
4X fixed Barska A2 mount with bullet drop compancaitor.
Now other then selecting the Drop setting for 200 yards I didn't make any site adjustments for this load. Since it was centered at 100 yards. So with a hold point of centered on the target and slow fire the drift seen is most likely do to the slight wind from 8 o'clock an slow bullets. I got 6 of 10 on the paper with the other 4 just off paper and since I was about 3 MOA at 100 yards the spread was about as expected for 200 yards. Obviously it's not Match shooting but hey I don't expect it from the AR used nor this load. I am concerned with the three bullets found that had lost there GC though, I'm thinking they were stripped from passing through the target cause if they had falling off after leaving the barrel from my experience the bullet usually doesn't get to the target at distances!
