Is there anyone out there been able to hit man size targets or smaller at 600 meters through an M4?

600m is 7.62NATO territory.  I don't think I'd ever try it thru and M4.

it can be done reliably. easy as pie with an A2 but its possible with the M4. an ACOG makes it a bit less daunting and almost easy. cant vouch for the oomph behind an M855 at through a 14.5 at that distance though.

The ammo/gun combo is accurate enough, but with the reduced iron sight radius, those ranges are best left for magnified optics with the M4.

Lots more ammo details in the Ammo FAQ at the top of the Ammo forum.
