Thread: howa 223 at ranges

Have shot this round in at 1" high at 100m which means point blank out to 170m - and needs 1-2" holdover at 200m. Used it on couple of varmint shoots so far and its accuracy very apparent in field - demolishes hares easily at 100-150 so far.

Trigger fully adjustable too.. Very effective rifle.

awesome good to know thank you might need to do a bit of practice on targets to work my grouping out a bit more too as well thanks heaps.
