I left LE for 7 months 6/05-1/06 to work for BFMI. That November my oldest son shot two whitetail bucks with a 12.5-in. Barrett M468 at under 60 yards using the initial slow run of Remington 115-gr. OTM. Not 500 meters, but those bucks died quickly and had tissue damage similar to whitetail I've killed with .270 Winchester 130s at less than 100 yards.

5.56mm is fine, but 6.8mm is final. My inner loony lusts for a 6.5-284, but a .270 will kill anything that needs shooting in Tennessee.
