What’s the difference between average range and long range

Hi guys,
Fed Ex dropped off a bunch of 308 Gold Match on my doorstep yesterday…… (first time purchasing nice ammo), but after reading the specs on the back, I’m kinda confused (or lost as the wife unit puts it) about one of the ballistic specs written on the back.
Can someone please explain to me what’s the difference between “Average Range” and “Long Range”? I’m assuming it’s bullet drop, but why are there two different numbers.
Thanks a bunch in advance

If you plan on shooting “long range” which is a different distance for each caliber, the recommended zero is 200yds.


Stick with the 100yd zero.
