6.5 Creedmoor AR10 target load

[MichalS]

Dear Sirs,

I decieded to have a go at semi-auto target shooting. We shoot up to a 1000y, so I went with 24" long 8" twist AR10 from Stag Arms in 6.5CM. It produces a sub 1MOA groups at 300m with factory Hornady 140 ELD Match, but thats not enough to be competitive... Any suggestions for a long range target load in a gas gun?

TIA,

Michal

We’re not allowed semi auto centerfire in good old Blighty. 

Your be better off asking on USA forums I would have thought. 

Here would be a good start

they seem a friendly bunch and helpful . There’s quite a few people on there that use 6.5 creedmoor in AR format for all sorts.

Andrew, here You are  At 1000y "10" is 0.665MOA, "black" is 1.23 MOA. I just won Nationals with 100/100 on this target at 800m, but that was with a bolt action... Highest result in semi auto @800m was 96pts., 95pts. gave 3rd place.
