@cadetkolodey 7mm mag is a good rifle for long range Im not even military and I can shoot 600 yards and hit a deer easy with that rifle.

@JimTL1000R 5.56x45mm shoots the same "Flat" .. good volocity. The bullet weight will be a big problem . Wind will have it' sway with the .22 cal. but .. a hit is a hit. That would be fun to go 1000 with a 5.56.Will not be easy.. I hope you post it , when you do.

You're wasting your time with 5.56. If it was meant for more than 600 yds. The Military would have IT as sniper rifles. If you want to go for 1000 yds my personal favorite it .300 WSM with boat tailed hollow point Sierras

@JimTL1000R a 5.56 will work with special vld type bullets of 80 grs wt. one of the favorite cartridges for NRA Long range right now is of course the 6.5x284.

Your barrel's are $750.00? What barrel are you using?
Judging by the amount of grains your bullet weighs and the amount of grains you charge is, I guessing its 308Win that you are shooting?? Correct me if I'm wrong. Nice group.

I am new to shooting long range. I purchased a Stag Arms Modle 6L ( Lefty) chambered in 5.56 with a 24" .936 stainless barrel. I wanted to get in to long range shooting. Is a 5.56 ok to shoot competitivly at 1000 yards? Or what course of fire should I look into? Thanks

im sure you can use the 5.56 but i have not seen many people use it. you should probably be using 7.62 or .308, .300, or even .338 lapua but the last one i think is expensive.
