Does anyone have real-world bullet drop info for 62gn RG (M855) from a 20" AR out to 600yds?

| 93.5 inches or 14.9 moa with a 100 yard zero Limey. I don't know the exact ballistic coefficient of the 62gr bullet from Radway Green, but I used the Barnes 62gr at 3100 fps. I used JBM ballistics calculator and it's usually very close. As far as real world every gun is a little different, the weather will have an effect, as will your altitude. The condition, lot number, and a few other things will have an effect on ammo itself, and there will be variations within the same lot, especially with military ammo. It's just not loaded with extreme accuracy in mind. With that said , you should be close enough and can do a few real world tests to make it right with your rifle. Make a dope card with all of your come ups for each yardage. There is a tape that uses a scope ring to mount on your scope that you can put that info on as well. It pulls out like a tape measure. It's available at most scope dealers. |
