I have a 22x47 rifle that shot fine for the first barrel. The second barrel shot 101 rounds perfectly before being nitrided, then after nitride it started blowing primers with 95 grain bullets. Under guidance from the builder, we tried reducing powder by 2 grains and went down to 82.5 gr...

Tom is building new targets out to 2500 yds along with a new shooting pavilion. The new targets are not ready quite yet but the new pavilion is built. The other berms for open range have steel and orange clays. Hitting an orange clay at 1,000 yds or beyond is quite fun...

I recently took delivery of a wildcat cartridged rifle in 22x47. The brass started life as 6.5x47 Lapua and took considerable time to resize and turn the necks of 500 pieces. This gun shoots a .224 SMK 95gr bullet at around 3200fps. The correction at 1000 yds is 5.9 mils. This past week...

I competed in ten 1000 yd BR matches this year at Thunder Valley Precision in Kimbolton, Ohio. I shot high score and tightest group on four different occasions. My tightest group was 6.667 inch group and my high score was 49. I used a stock RPR in 6.5 Creedmoor and my own handloads.

Tom has been adding some new features to the range. He has new berms at 200, 300, 400, 500, 700, 1100, 1200 and one mile. That's in addition to his existing berms at 600 and 1000 yards. There is steel and orange clays on every berm. He has also created a new dedicated area for handgun...

I took my second Precision Data Class yesterday from Tom Sarver at Thunder Valley Precision in Ohio. We shot from 100 yards out to the mile target. Gathered a lot of data and the wind was a real challenge all day long. We shot from several different positions and dozens of targets. Tom is a...

I wonder if my old membership was lost? I was a member for years and then suddenly my signon was no longer any good. Anyway I'm back again.

Has anyone used RL-17 for the Berger 140 gr Hybrid target bullets and if so how much? I loaded up some Berger 140 gr Hybrid target with RL-19 according to the Berger Load manual ans used 43.0 grams of powder. My average FPS was ONLY 2558 when it should have been close 2699. I shot them all so I...
