Generally what you'll here is that the EFFECTIVE range of the .308 is 800 yards. But you can accurately go beyond that with the right load. (I have had the oppurtunity to shoot out to 1100 yards with a 308 bolt rifle, and hit 4 out of five at 1K, and 3 out of five at 1100 shooting at a 12"x18" steel plate) I haven't done much more than 100 yard shooting with my stock DPMS LR 308, but here are the results of six 3 shot groups, fired one after the other:



It isn't as consistent as my 308 bolt gun, but I think I'd still trust the cold bore just as far as out as I would my Remington.
