Hello out there 6.8 fans!
My "handle" is Blazedawg1973. I'm relatively new to the AR world. Never shot a military type of weapon before, but I have grown up as a competative target and trap shooter since I was 13 years old (I'm now 35). I picked the 6.8 cal for a few reasons.... the reviews that I read in various tactical wepon magazines, the right ups I read on the internet, Future Weapons (T.V. show) on the subject of 6.8 vs. 5.56 rounds and their performance, and the recomendation of two of my friends ( a retired marine, and a Navy Seal Sniper), they both recomended the "upgrade" to the 6.8 round.
I do have a couple of questions.... reguarding a good deal on target ammo (for practice) in bulk, and where to get it.... and also how to go about "zeroing" my sights on my new XM-15 Bushmaster. Both of my friends are out of the country on mission right now, and I am unable to reach them for the technical procedure for "zeroing". If anybody out there could answer these questions in "lamens" terms I would appriciate it very much. Blazedawg1973.
