I've been thinking about using my Ruger 10/22 instead, to practice .308 long-range shooting. Can the experience be "transferable"? I mean, I know the experience I gain gauging for drop and wind are common to all calibers, but at what distance should I practice with the 10/22 if I wanna play like it was a .308 at 600 - 1000 yards?

Thank you.

Does a .22lr have a BC? :lol4:
I know the wind plays havoc on a poor lil .22.

I just go blast away with the .22 and shoot the really try to hit something with the .270.
Do you reload?
