400 yards is pretty good, really. Was that with a scope or iron sights?

That was with a totally original condition rifle. Nothing added at all. Also using nearly 50 year old surplus fmj ammo.

That German who shot the test target must have been something else.

The wife places rounds in the x and ten rings with iron sights at 600 yards, with M1A. Me, I need my shooting glasses to get the front sight in focus.

Glass greatly increases the range, but need to always calculate the range.

Xmas present is (going to be) laser range finder.
