WWSD 2020 – 9-Hole Practical Accuracy (to 650)

Josh and Henry’s Practical Accuracy course generally stops at 500 yards.

This time though they pushed it to 650 yards.

Why?

You’ll have to watch.

But if you are saying, “Keith, the WWSD Project was a Forgotten Weapons and InRange project.” You would be correct. But while Ian and Karl do good work, good science is repeatable and expanded results.

The whole project can be summed up in the name, WWSD. What Would Stoner Do? Eugene Stoner, who most prominently developed the AR-10 which was then scaled to the AR-15, designed a lightweight functional rifle out of modern material components with an emphasis on weight savings while retaining accuracy and function.

Given those same parameters in 2020, what would Stoner do? Or rather, what would he build. The advance in materials allows a more precise variant of his vision and Brownells brought it to life in the WWSD2020. It is a truly modern proof of an old concept that a light lithe rifle can do good work.

You can also bolt a bunch of stuff on it for every conceivable conception and wonder how it got really heavy, but enough about the HK416/320 combo.
