Bolt vs AR
What’s the furthest distance you’ve push either platform to?

I have 20” ar I through together to take out to foul bore. I have to get some together first.

I have an 18” that will gong steel at 550 no problem but haven’t gone further. A bolt, not sure how much further you can go. But you do have the advantage of seating long.

I've got a 24" AR that I have hit Prairie Dogs at 500 yds occasionally. It will keep 5 rounds under a Quarter at 200yds with 69 gr Match Kings. I've hit 10" steel with it out to 800.

That’s pretty good!
