Rich, is a list of participating clubs available?

Guys, my comment was meant in fun. I've shot a few matches and seem to get worse the more I shoot. The last match I shot I was paying more attention to what was going on around me and not keeping the fundamentals of marksmanship in mind. The best advice I could offer would be to focus on the...

Who is the bookie for this event? I see a team that is stacked!

Detroit, thank you very much sir.

I was wondering if anyone knew offhand what the bullet length is for the 300 grn Scenar. I'm trying to load this into my Kestrel. Thank you.

Glad to hear you are safe and sound. I've talked to him personally as well and he's always been great to deal with. I love my McRee stock.

I tried to look up my old load tests and they were inconclusive about how much a .1 would make. I just bump it up and see. Thank you all for your replies.

Can anyone tell me an approximate value of how much a .1 of a grain will increase the velocity for H4350. I'm shooting 139 Scenars from a 24" barrel. I need to bump my velocity up about 40 fps. I've been unable to find any information on this. Thank you.

Cat, I did not have a brake installed on either of my barrels. The #8s were heavy but I don't think they were the bull barrels. I did have fast turn around times for both and had good experiences both times.

I had them put a 28" #8 straight taper on my Mod 70 in 6.5 X 284 years ago. It shot in the .3's. I then had them put a 22" #8 straight taper 308 on that Mod 70 and still shoot it today. Its a good barrel. Both of mine were super match.

My daughter killed her first a few weeks ago using 139 Scenars at 130 yds. Ran a few yards and dropped.

Been out of town and just getting back. Thank you for your replies. A friend of mine found it in his manual that it will figure elevation changes for cosine and angles.

I am wondering if the Kestrel with AB can calculate changes in the angle or slope of your shot. Any help would be appreciated.

I meant its a great place to shoot regardless of who's match it is. And I second what snyper wrote! Either that or shoot it with a 308.

Looking forward to another K & M shoot. I'm in. Jimbo is a ringer and should be required to shoot left handed though.
