Noone said anything about the 7.62x51 AR being incapable of accuracy at distance. Yeah it's a big deal (for me at least) because 3/8s MOA and just Sub-MOA are two different things, especially when it comes to a semi. Sub-MOA is nothing new on semi's but to see one that will hold it's ground all day long with my bolt rifle (and others) is impressive. While i do agree it's all shooter at the 1k yard line, semi's aren't known for that kind of accuracy. Most people can't do that with a bolt rifle much less a semi. In my experience and most others that i've talked to semi's are harder to shoot accurately than bolt guns. IMO it's extremely impressive, and is a good example of what kind of rifles George puts out.
