Why not do a 6.5 Grendel or build a .308 "long range" AR?
Also yeah the stock sucks, get a sopmod.

Yeah, probably going to do .308. Sadly the range I shoot at most often is limited to 300yards. There is a gun club about a 40minute drive from me, but would have access to a 500yd range there.
Sadly unsure of where else I could go within an hour or two drive of me to reach out further.

If the farthest you can realistically shoot is 500 yards then I would just stick with .223/5.56. It will be more than adequate at those distances and being cheaper to shoot definitely doesn't hurt.

Yeah, but I still kind of want a 308 anyway. Even if not practical, will be more fun. :)
I've not even properly sighted in my AR anyhow. I just completed the build a month or so ago. Because of my work schedule I could never get to the LGS in time to get ammo there, so was going to Wal-Mart after dark to get ammo. All they had there was $35, 20rd boxes of match grade Winchester .223. Due to the price I only bought 60 rounds there and used those to break the gun in. Shoot a few rounds, clean. Shoot a few rounds, clean. After that I said fuck it and just started shooting. Finally got to the LGS a couple weekends ago and they had $8, 20rd boxes of PMC x-tac 5.56 so got some of those. I'll get it sighted in once I go to a proper range and aren't just shooting logs in the woods.

I'm loving this thread, I wish guns were legal in Aus, its a fucking joke, we can't even have a god damn decent laser light/pointer let alone a BB gun.
