Hello, I am Ralph. Previous to this last weekend I had never shot past 300 yards, let alone a prs event. I joined a few facebook groups and got talked into competing in a local Rifles Only event. Let me just say that was the most fun I have ever had with a rifle. I learned a ton and will be competing as much as I can!!! I am located in San Antonio, Texas. I am not new to firearms, but definitely new to prs. I am currently shooting a Ruger Precision chambered in 6.5 cm w/ a Vortex Strike eagle 5x25x56 on top. I have to hand it to the community, everyone there was so willing to give me instruction and guidance(I am sure I am getting annoying by now) So far my proudest moment was landing a 1k shot first trigger pull on a "all or nothing stage". I am new to a lot of this, but I am also jumping into reloading as well. I currently have access to a dillon xl750 and I just ordered a ACBS partner single stage for my precision shooting stuff. Thanks in advance for everything yall do!!!! I HAVE BEEN BIT BY THE BUG!!!

Welcome to Snipers Hide, Ralph, from East Central Florida. It is a lot of fun for sure, which is why I still shoot a few matches a year, though I do not practice enough to place higher than middle pack these days.
 
Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I have been into some pretty expensive hobbies, but this is close to topping the charts. My love for cars still might be a bigger burden on my wallet, but not for long. I am also getting dragged back into 3-gun and need a full setup again. lol wish me luck.
