Title: 550 meter headshot how?
Post by: STGN on 15 Jan 2003, 15:29:13
I am making a M4SPR and I have heard that it has made 550 meters headshots so now I am woundering how the settings should be.

I dont yhink that it is a ordinary M855 round but go to my site I have rode a littel about it.
And this is a new sniper rifle not a M4.

the M4 SPR is as accurate as the 7.62mm M24 SWS out to 800m

The weapon is supposed to be remakably accurate in a trained shooter's hands. It is also equipped with a very powerful scope, with which kills could be reliably made at distances far exceeding 1000 meters. It is based on the M4, but uses many "after market" modifications and parts. I wouldn't be surprised if the real life weapon was also loaded with commercial manufacture match grade ammo. Remember, this is a weapon used by SF troops, often times in combat conditions other than war. The Geneva Convention's restrictions on the use of ammunition like hollow-points, does not apply.

well... the Ballistic Coefficient of a 77grain .223 caliber bullet is going to be huge... probably in the .450 range, and the standard 168 grain match ammo for the .308 is in the .480 range... so this special rifle will be a flat shooter to be sure.  I would bet on 6" or better grouping @ 800yds, however... 77 grains is still light for a long range round, it would be nearly impossible to make any more than a 600yd shot if there was gusting or shifting winds.
