My current range only goes out to 200 yards, and I've only had my FAL for a little more than a year now, so I've got a LOT of practicing to do. I can easily hit a human silouette target (it's what I learned to shoot on in the Army and it's almost all I use) at 200 yards from the prone, easy. Standing...getting there.
Anyways, my GOAL is this: to be able to hit something the size of a milk jug, at 200 meters, from the standing position. Also, I want to be able to hit a human silouette or similar sized targets at 500-600 yards, RELIABLY, with iron sights. Take advantage of the range and power my 7.62mm rifle offers.
As I said, I've got a good ways to go (and need to find a longer range; there's one around here, just have to visit it) before I get there. I think it's a challenging, yet achievable goal.
So who here's good with their rifle's iron sights? Go ahead, blow your own horn! Who can hit targets at 500 meters and beyond with iron sights? Prone position, supported or off a bipod is impressive, prone unsupported even moreso.
C'mon, fess up!
