How far do you intend to be shooting out to? I know that with the standard M-16A4 carrys a 1:7 rate of twist shooting the ss109 62 grain bullet. That combination allows the penetration of a steel helmet at 600meters. The origional m16-s had a rate of twist around 1:14. this slow rate led impressive exit wounds in Vietnam. Anyways the US Army uses that combination to shoot out to 300m accurately and the USMC uses it to shoot out to 500m, with Iron sights. Anything past 500 and the large portion of how well your shot is relies upon you the shooter. Now if you know anything about the government and the military, everything they buy is from the lowest bidder, so if you match yourself up with some premium ammo, you should be able to shoot to 500 with the .223/5.56 without a problem.
