Would you mind sharing hit/miss stats. Very impressive for a semiauto! I presume you shoot reloads?
Thanks, great to see a gas gun taking the spotlight finally

It took a few rounds to get the wind right but I hit it 4 for 4 on Saturday. Sunday was a bit tougher to see due to heavy mirage and the wind was less forgiving but I got 5 in a row on it again Sunday one the mirage calmed a bit. I shot at it earlier in the day but we couldn't tell if I was hitting it or not and I didn't get a close up look after the shooting stopped to check out the hits.

Loads were 175gr SMK over 43.3gr RE15, 210M & LC LR brass. They move at 2725 fps from my 22" bolt gun @ 80*F, not sure what they're doing out of the 24" DPMS barrel.

Good job man!</div></div>

That is funny we were joking about how you can't shoot a .308 past 1000 while we were there. There was a target at 1390 yards that was hit with a .308 on Saturday.
