I just finished publishing the updated data based on this year’s PRS season finale, which happened just a few weeks ago. I thought you guys might be interested in seeing some of the info that has come out of that. It’s interesting to see the trends between last year and this year.
I've included the highlights here, but if you're interested in digging in a little deeper there are a lot more charts and information provided at PrecisionRifleBlog.comhttp://precisionrifleblog.com/2013/12/17/best-rifle-caliber-what-the-pros-use/.
I only posted a few charts because there is a limit to the number of images in a single post, and I also didn't want to bore anyone ... just hit the few I thought most people would be interested in. But I also published a ton of other charts and data on the gunsmiths these guys used, actions, bullets, powders, brass, shooting rest bags, and a few other things too.

In case someone isn't familiar with the Precision Rifle Series … here’s quick explanation:
The Precision Rifle Series (PRS) is a championship style point series race based on the best precision rifle matches nationwide. PRS matches are recognized as the major league of sniper-style rifle matches. At the end of each year, the scores from 15 different matches are evaluated and the top 50 shooters nationwide are invited to compete head to head in the PRS Finale Match. The data I’ve published is based on the equipment those pros brought with them to the most recent finale. This is a great set of data, because 50 shooters is a significant sample size, and this particular group are also considered experts among experts.
