Well a Remington 700 series is typically preferred for such work. Thank God it was an AR-15 instead!!

He’s lucky if it was an ar15. Terrible option for long range precision shooting


You do realize that 130 yards is really not considered long range. Most hunters sight in their rifles anywhere from 100-150 yards depending on the terrain they are hunting. Elite snipers make 1000 yard shots. An AR in a .223 caliber is more than capable of making a 130 yard shot.

Now I do agree that most proficient shooters would likely choose a bolt action .308 or something similar if you had one chance for one shot at that distance and wanted to make sure it was a kill shot, but an AR would definitely be able to get the job done.

Yeah because the guy that shot the fricking president wouldn’t have just gotten the gun illegally. Also the rally was a gun free zone!!!


Nailed it.
