Using ball ammo and the Aimpoint, the SOCOM shoots pretty much like my AKs at around a 100 yards, when shot the same way. My favorite was the Aimpoint, but the scope was OK too. I used both a Scout scope and Aimpoint on my SOCOM as well as the irons. For example, at 100 yards, my standard model zero was around 8-10 clicks, my Bush model was 14, and my SOCOM was 22. One thing to consider too with all of the different barrel lengths is the number of clicks each requires for the different ranges. I was told by Springfield you can replace them with the Scout/Bush model "standard" type sights if you want something a little easier for longer range shooting. Nothing wrong with them if used as intended, but as the range increases, the challenge begins. The fat front sight bascally covers, or exceeds a "people" target at 100 yards, and the rear sight has been drilled to a ghost ring.
The sights are the major issue for shooting with any precision past 100 yards.
