a bit late I know, but Friday I went on my annual pilgrimage to WMS in Wales, as usual the Welsh weather tried to drown us with near Hurricane winds roaring up the valley and torrential rain at times in the morning :P however the variety of shooting angles and the fun of shooting at steel plates and hearing the clang after what seemed like ages really made up for the less than ideal weather, not a particularly cheap day, but well worth it for the novelty, and the chance to learn a lot about practical shooting. I took a .308 and the sink plunger tongueout and to be honest I had way more fun with the AUG as the wind was so strong that it was hard to hold the .308 on target and the recoil made it difficult to spot the fall of shot if you missed, the AUG went through ammo like it was free! and in the end the combined useage was in the region of 300 rounds! so if you are doing another .223 buy Dave I'm in for my limit
to give an idea of the wind, at 400yrds the .308's were using about 6MOA of wind and the .223's 12MOA! even then the AUG was hitting the 10" gong as often as missing and the gusts were making 1-2ft of windage variation at times!
