Hi all!
In short a Norwegian livings outside capital of Norway; worked in the Norwegian Infantry back in the beginning of 2000’s; have been part timing as NG in Norway for around 10 years also.

Sport shooter, both IPSC and some veteran repeater army weapons for fun, hunting and now starting up in the PRS.

been reloading but still have stuff to learn (not just on reloading but every aspect of life 😅 )

been in the purchasing/selling side of hunting weapons in norther Europe the last two years but are moving now to a more general position and will be going back to only having it as a hobby and not also as work .

Anyhow, this is my new PRS starting rig; it’s a start 🙂

Welcome to the Hide, Brother from Middle Georgia, USA! Glad to have another veteran and thank you for serving your nation. Looks like you have a pretty good set up already and since you handload you have an even better ability to get precise. Hope you find all manner of information useful to increasing your skills. I used to shoot IPSC myself in the 80's so you know that you really only are competing against yourself and how you "could" have done it better! Glad to have you here!
 
It’s still in the starting block but are slowly picking up speed.

the big shooting sports outside hunting have been more traditional European diopter and shooting jacket target shooting at known distance ranges out to 300meters with 6.5x55 SCAN; in addition it’s a good deal of target shooting of pistols and revolvers in different sub segments from hyper precision 25meters 22LR to IPSC and magnum revolvers.

one of the issues are that most ranges historically have not been made with distances over 200 meters in mind so there is a infrastructur issue.

But new ranges and possibilities are slowly getting there.
