    Help me create a training day

    All movement should be done with an open bolt. If the shooter is using a gas gun, the procedure is to put the rifle on safe and verbally call out "safe" when moving. Muzzles should be down range at all times, the 120 degree rule needs to be applied. If this is an event for all skill levels, I...

    Dialing wind Question

    Interesting that this is different for different people. On a troop line I am more likely to get lost dialing than I do holding, particularly if I have a miss and have to adjust. Holding forces me to have a number in my head for each hold. That number seems to stick better (I think this is...

    Dialing wind Question

    You have to pick a single number that you believe is correct. You need to be aware of the high and low but the average is generally what I am going to start with. Let's say in this example the average is 10mph. I am going to dial .8 on the gun for the 400 yd target and then hold +.2 for the 500...

    Inexpensive Shot Timer for PRS training

    I understand that it is $300, but the Kestrel KST1000 is superior to the other options. If you are really going to use it, I would recommend finding the extra $$ and purchasing the Kestrel. I have one and will never go back.

    What MOA dot for target Aquisition on bolt guns?

    1. If you have ever watched a less proficient pistol shooter try to find their dot, you will understand that that this is simply another layer of complication. It is also to an extent obstruction the shooters sight line to the target. The base of the sight blocks the view immediately above the...

    What MOA dot for target Aquisition on bolt guns?

    I will start by saying I don't think this is the best path. That said, if you are set on doing so, the only one from your list I could recommend is the 2.5MOA SRO. Holosun 507C would be another to consider.

    PRS Talk neck size 6 creedmoor alpha brass Breger 105 hybrid

    I believe .267 would be a safe guess on bushing size. That is what I am running on my 6GT with Alpha brass.

    Think I’m gonna sponsor a Team

    If I had to, I could shoot a 1 day regional match for $155-$170 depending on drive distance to the range. That is $60 entry fee, $25-40 fuel, and $70 for components (assumes .70 per round for 100 rounds). Using the components I currently use, the cost is $185-200 (component cost $1.00 per...

    Think I’m gonna sponsor a Team

    With regard to reloading, if possible, find someone who is willing to let you load on their equipment to start with and teach you. Learning from a good mentor will save you time and money. If you start with the basics you can recover the cost of reloading equipment quickly. A Chargemaster and a...

    Prs Cold Weather Outer Layers

    For the hands I keep a carton of Hot Hands in my car. I put 2 in each pocket to start the match and make sure to keep my hands in my pockets as much as possible prior to my turn to shoot.

    Bare Minimum Gear for First PRS Match?

    Binos and tripod were the last items I upgraded from what I started with in 2019. Having something to observe and spot with is a huge benefit and worth spending some money on. I started with a Slik 700 tripod ($119) and a pair of $200 Vortex binos.

    You mention that you are experiencing lots of wobble. What shooting bag are you using?

    PRS Talk Explain the hype

    This is the reason many people (including myself) are trying the 25 cal. In my case I am running 25GT at 2700 with a 135 Berger. Because I was already running a 6 GT, there was almost no reloading gear investment (one bushing, two mandrels). The 135 provides greater feedback both on target and...
