HOw is it that the 5.56 can shoot at longer ranges and buck the winds? I am mystified that the .30 rifles have been stuffed in the bin of history for long range shooting. I know the 5.56 beat you less in a match but winds seem to me to be a huge dynamic with 5.56 caliber rifles for long range shooting.
I just would like to know how this happened . Not a pulse for a food fight on rifles. Just a inquirey to understand how lighter bullets can be made to shoot Long Range accurately.
