Guys, I got a chance to shoot some loads with R-17 and the 123s. I had shot a load of 43.5grs across the cronograph a couple of weeks ago an it averaged 2990+fps with the 123s. Because we were shooting a bunch of loads across the crono at the same time I didn't get a chance to check the...

I started a thread months back asking this question and was told to try it and find out, so I did and am reporting back though I couldn't find that thread.... I worked up a load for my 300WM using the 110gr V-Max bullet and 83.5gr IMR4831. It is .1 or .2 grains from going into a compressed...

Thought it might be good to share our results with different ammo since there are a bunch of us with the same setup. I'm interested to hear what worked best for others. <span style="text-decoration: underline">Ammo that extracted:</span> CCI Subsonic -> shot ok, but was difficult closing the...

Had a perfect day today, very little wind, 70 deg. F, & sunny! Ammo is Federal American Eagle 40 gr. solid, Averages 1248 fps in my gun, an Anschutz 64 MPR. $1.59 a box! Shoots consistent .3-.5" 50 yard groups, twice as big as Wolf ME but 1/4 the price. Groups at 100 yards on out seem to be...

Picked up a Leupold 4.5-14x40 LRT (w/mildot) and mounted it using a B-Square rail adapter, and Leupold PRW low 30mm rings. All shots were fired using Wolf Match Target. Zeroing started at 40 yards and I can say I was pretty happy. 4 5 shot groups averaged .169". I then moved back to 100...

We had 28 shooters come out to this months steel match. Thank you Shawn and Sam for running a safe and smooth match. Thank you to the guys that came out on Friday to setup the range and the guys that tore everything down after the match. Looks like the COF was pretty tough on a lot of...

Ok...so I made up 30rds for my .223 (Tikka T3) today. These are the very first hand loads I have ever made. The results are rather sorry. To say I am disappointed is putting it mildly. Here is a pic. The first group was about what I shoot with quality factory ammo. After that it all went to...

Thanks to all who shot today, the wind was very "switchy". Please note next months match will be on May 16, 2009 [the 3rd saturday of the month] for May 2009 only, [I have to be out of town the second saturday]. Hope to cya then. Larry April 2009 Match 308 Class: By Score: Larry Levine 148...

We had 39 shooters come out today to compete in some very nice weather. First relay had almost 0 wind while 2nd relay had a bit more to deal with at times. 50 rounds fired from 200yards back to 1K. Bonus stage at 1K for 50pts was to make hit on a 8" target. I believe we had almost half a...

Yesterday we finished up the final day of the 2009 Sniper's Hide Cup and I think everyone truly enjoyed themselves. We got through a lot of stuff, the round count was just around 150 rifle, 60 handgun and 3 Carbine from the Helicopter. Everyone did a fantastic job on a very fundamentals...

Was out getting in some trigger time yesterday. Using Frank's 10-shot standard has me rethinking 208s over W760 in a 1/12 factory barrel. 208s were pretty tight with 44.5gr RL15 in the past, out to 1100+ yards. I've been messing around with W760 to eek out more velocity, but accuracy went to...

I picked up my new MPR yesterday. The trigger is outstanding. I may have to increase the pull weight to more closely match my other rifles. The first groups at 100 yards were right at 1" in somewhat windy conditions with Wolf Match. Ergonomics are very good so far. Updated with pics today:

Had a most excellent match today. However I any getting a little tired of the rain and wind. The last 3 matches here have been either rainy, windy or both. Yesterday was windy and cold. Ryan shot like a machine today. He did great on every stage.Great shooting Ryan. Ryan K 553.5 Kurt S 390...

What a great day to shoot. All the dirty guns were washed with the constant rain and wind. First relay 308 shooters were around 10MOA of right windage at 1K. On 2nd relay I had 8 MOA in for my 260rem. Marc S. was using 2 + mils with his 243. 33 men came out to shoot with several not making...
