I['m putting this question in this forum as my weapons are 24 inch DPMS 308's.
Anyway, I've read lots of threads about the "best" 308 long range round so I've got that figured out well enough, however I'm in the process of buying all the necessary things for disaster survival & $40 a box 308 ammo is not in my budget abilities, when thinking of a couple thousand rounds to stockpile.
So my question is, what would be a good round that falls in the mid-range price category, say maybe $20 a box ?
What I need is something that will give me the ability to engage at the farther ranges, 600 to 800 yds or more. My goal is to be able to keep any potential problems as far away as possible as I have a partially crippled left leg and need the extra time to disappear.
I'd love to be able to load up on FGMM 168 Sierras' but I also need water purification tools, med supplies, etc.
Any advice on this subject will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
