  1. Basically a smaller higher pressure 45/70.

    Get a long barrel, the highest BC bullet and max the pressure hot loads.

    With a fixed 4x shotgun scope on my Ruger American I can hit man sized silhouettes at 300yds with stock ammo.

    Better scope, longer barrel and hand loads probably 400 yds maybe 500 but I'm not a good shot so probably a few rounds to dial in.

    Almost 800 yds is insane

  2. It's interesting to me that because this cartridge is intended for AR platforms that its chamber pressures are kept intentionally low.
    This performance is impressive, but the cartridge is capable of even more and can get there safely in different actions.
