    Member Link Up Any other mifflin sportsman association members?

    I'm a member. Unfortunately, did not make it up at all last year. Lost my shooting buddy. Committing to getting there once per month this year. I have my own steel. PM me when you are going or post here. Maybe we can meet up. I'm no upper echelon shooter. I don't do matches. I just enjoy long...

    There is some "resident" steel at Mifflin but it's pretty beat up.

    Member Link Up Maryland Shooters?

    Maybe you MD folks should hook up with us PA guys for Mifflin County Sportsman Club. No sponsorship, waiting list or anything like that. I'm in Lancaster, PA and it takes me 1 1/2 hour to get up there. Nice range. No uptight shooters or snobs. Maybe jump on the PA side of this thread and...

    Night Vision Best setup for under $500

    I think you have to be realistic about your needs. Example: When my buddy and I began night hunting on his property I purchased a Sightron Photon largely due to the price and my ignorance. Our shooting consists of sitting over an electric call or gut pile at 75 yards or less with fairly open...

    What is standard deviation?

    Thanks everybody. I needed to have this put into perspective. The rifle in question consistently shoots 1/2 and better MOA out to 300 with this load and an SD of 12. That's as far as my local range goes. I only get to shoot to 1K about 4-6 times per year. So, given what Steelhead said, I'll...

    What is standard deviation?

    So my SD's didn't change much. I'm going to try a couple different primers. I'm beginning to shoot at longer ranges (out to 1K). I'm making hits but as my skill level progresses I want to make sure I'm not being handicapped by my equipment. Any other suggestions?

    Lehigh Defense 121 Match solids

    Anyone know why the Lehigh Defense 121 gr. Match Solids are listed as to be for the 6.5 Creedmore only? I sent an email to Lehigh Defense but no response yet. I've used these in my 260 rem with excellent results.

    What is standard deviation?

    Good information. Thanks. My string included a clean cold bore shot that ran faster than all the others. In fact, my notes indicate that velocity ran much closer after the first 4 shots. I'm going to fire another string with the fouled barrel and see if SD improves.

    Range Report 6.5mm 121 gr. Lehigh match solid

    Curious if anyone is trying the 121 match solids out of a 260 rem. I'm getting decent results with 40.2 gr. of RL 15 and a COAL of 3.77" out of my CTR

    What is standard deviation?

    Thanks folks. I'm getting an SD of 12 for my new 338 Lapua load.

    What is standard deviation?

    Chrono failed to sync up to my phone today. I was able to get velocity of the individual shots and record them but did not get the SD's. How do you calculate this?

    338 Lapua Magnum

    K80mp, I'm loading mine at about .02. I just found a load for this bullet last weekend. In my rifle it still fits the mag. Good luck
