FAL is as good for pretty goods groups to at least 200 yards, (maybe 300 or 400 on rare occasions)
I have no problems consistently hitting a 24" steel target at 600 yards with an iron-sighted FAL. That may not be good enough for competition shooting, but I know that is good enough for what the FAL is: a battle rifle. I built the rifle myself using surplus STG-58 parts and an Imbel receiver. I expect a DSA made FAL with new parts would shoot very well and should meet your requirements.

Of course, a well-made M1A is an excellent rifle, and would also suit your purpose, but I don't own one. I can build three FALs for the price of one M1A.
