Basic training for fire arms in the army is, what, between 80 and 350 yards, give or take? We're not talking about sniper training, here. We're talking about the largest group, that inevitably uses the most rounds, and that basic, for all branches of the military. And those folks aren't firing at anything past 350 yards. Now, I'm no expert, but I'd assume we're talking about the 5.56? No slouch, even with an iron, instead of lead, slug. And I know from my deer hunting days, that you adjust your SCOPE to compensate for longer shots, stuff past, say, 250 yards or more. Well, simply adjust them to accommodate the other bullet, so the soldier aims the same way.
