Howdy, yet another forum to rabbit hole! Total noob when it comes to scopes, bolt guns and longer ranges. Came to learn up so I can build up my (already sporterized by prior owner) 1903A3. My background is CMP/NRA service rifle comp.

Thanks y'all. @DustBun you know of any good spots to shoot long besides the 770 yds at Saltwater?

With you being in JAX, there is Bradford Sportsmen's Farm near Starke. It's still a bit of a drive for you. They go out to 850 yards, I have never been there. I go to JTAC in Mulberry, not often enough, they go out to 2,000 yards. Sorry not too familiar with ranges for you in JAX. Maybe @Northfl and @lash might help since they know your neck of the woods better.

Appreciate the info, starke isn't too terribly far. I had to go about that far to shoot when I lived in Jersey. Gateway is one of the main ones in Jax, but I don't care much for them.

Volusia is an option, but currently there are some bugs that need to be worked out to make it a go to venue in my opinion. And I’m a member there. It is my home range.
