After a long break from shooting, a buddy and I went out to a friend's 40 acre wooded spread where he has a 100 & 200 yard range. They also built a couple of very nice right/left shooting benches built from 6x6 and 2x pressure treated stock and thoroughly anchored into the ground. Super heavy duty if I ever saw one.
I had the EoTech holosight on the PTR G3 and at 200 yards the bore sighting I did wasn't too too far off. The left and right was perfectly down the center of the target, but bore sighted at 30 meters, it needed to come up 6 clicks to get it to the 10 ring.
Now, it's been ages since I fired at 200 yards, in fact, not since before I sold my StG.58 over a year ago. My eyes are slipping some, and the red holographic dot just about covers up an entire B-27 target at that distance. However, after re-zeroing the EOTech, I was putting them in the 8,9, and 10 ring. I was pretty pleased with my shooting at that distance with that sight.
There was at least a magazine or more that completely obliterated the X and most of the ten ring, with the rest spread around the center of mass. I even managed several head shots at that distance, but there were a lot of misses and that small of a target too.
If it weren't for the fact that I bought this rifle for distances out to around 50-75 yards, I'd put some regular glass on this and see what it could really do at 200 yards. As it was I could barely see that far, let alone put that red dot on any particular part of the target. I just aimed where I thought the red dot would be over the X and fired.
After 100 rounds with the collapsible stock I was finished. I might have shot more, but I only took 100 rounds. I figured that was enough. It was a beautiful day out in the woods.
I also took along the Walther P5, HK USP9 Compact, S&W 4006, and SIG-Sauer P225. We shot about 100 rounds through each except for the S&W 4006. I only had one box of WWB for it.
Not the rifle nor any of the handguns bobbled even one round. I was very impressed, but not particularly surprised. Especially with the rifle. It functions just as good as any HK I've owned or fired.
