Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match. Saturday July 21 2018 - 04/02/18 12:39 PM
*Know your DOPE from the muzzle to 800 yards.
*Come prepared for anything.
*All distances will be given.
*All stages will be timed.
*This is more difficult, smaller targets, longer distances, and shorter par times than the hunting match.
*Shots will be from prone, seated, kneeling and using fixed objects.
*Multiple target distances within one stage, at times.
*Multiple positions within one stage, at times
*Target sizes from 2 MOA down to 1 MOA
*Shots will be left hand and right hand.
*Mandatory zero check begins at 0700.
*Match begins at 0800.
*Nothing larger than .30 caliber, and no muzzle velocity over 3200 fps.
*We will cook and eat at noon.
*You will be in the shade all day. It's much cooler at the zero line, than anywhere else on the property.
*Bring snacks and water. Beer when it's over, and the rifles are put away.
*$75 entry fee on Chad's site.
*If you pay, and need to back out, you may sell your entry fee to someone else. That person, and you, need to let me know of the change.
*Specators welcome and they must sign a waiver.
*Round count 100, bring extra if you can.
*Everyone is very helpful, and will loan you equipment and advice if you need it. Don't sit on the fence, this is a friendly environment, and some impressive shooting takes place. Plenty of trash talk, and comedy all day long.
Range is located:
2213 CR 3835
Wolfe City, TX
It will rain before, so do not go down Fannin CR 3805, because it will be a mud road.

Chad and I plan on RO-ing, and shooting it.
Hopefully I can focus on both tasks.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match - 04/02/18 03:05 PM
Yes, I'd like to RO and shoot it. The only question is how serious are we about it. Do I keep shooting my 308 Win parts build (that won it last year), or get real serious and pull out the 6.5x47 Lapua? Decisions, decisions!!??

I need to do load development on my gun. I was shooting factory loads for most of the last match since I've had trouble working up a good consistent load as of yet.
If I can get a good load going, I'm in. If not, I may come hang out and watch anyway.

That's why we will not be included in the final scoring of the event this year. Jason and I will shoot it, but not be in the actual running for placement in the match.

Yeah
I was getting .5"-.6" groups with factory ammo. My first test with reloads with virgin brass was tiny groups. Loaded up the same stuff with once-fired brass and can't seem to get the same groups, or anything consistently good.
I need to do a formal ladder test and then play with seating depth. I got a bushing die, FGMM primers, H-4350, and 140 ELD-M's, so I should be able to get it figured out. Just a little hesitant given the groups I've gotten on my reloads so far.

Set the bullet .030" off the lands, load 42.0 to 43.0 in .2 gr increments. Group shoot at 200 yards. No need for a ladder test, one of those is it.

Unless you're using Lapua brass. I'm getting the same velocity as my Winchester brass loads, with a full grain less powder in the Lapua.

Practice up between now amd then. Far, fast, small, and hopefully wind will be some of what you're up against. And by the way, only 50% of it is prone. The rest is some modified positions you have to solve the puzzle for.
Be glad to have you cone out.

All week it was 15-30 out of the south, yesterday it was 10-20 out of the north.
I shot most days this week, and the tree lines will make things interesting, where wind holds are concerned.

Chad and Jason should be able to shoot in this match and not be handicapped. They work hard doing these shoots and should be able to compete for prizes like the rest of us.
I would like to shoot in it if I don't burn my barrel out on my prairie dog shoot in June. I'm already making excuses. I really would like to shoot but I'm not sure about the "twists"
Hell, I get a nice tax write off with all my donations to these matches

PISTOL!!!
Chad and I just got off the phone. We will be adding two pistol stages. Right now, bring 50 rounds, and two mags. You will not have to wear your pistol. Ammo needs to be accurate, don't worry about power.

Of the guys who are currently signed up, who doesn't want to shoot pistols? If you are NOT currently signed up, your opinion will hold much less weight, for obvious reasons. If no one wants to shoot a pistol, then we can take it out. Most tactical matches have pistol stages, so we were going to add some. One was shooting through a windshield.

Tentative plan was for one stage, you have to clear the pistol targets before moving to your rifle, but the pistol hits are not points. And you're on the clock for pistol and rifle.
The other pistol stage is points for hits, same as rifle.

The pistol was my idea. I'll leave it up to Jason on if it's in or out.
I freely admit, I am not the best pistol shot out there. But I concentrate on the front site and mentally slow down when shooting the pistol. This helps me, and I do pretty well with it in comps. I used to shoot IDPA to help with my pistol shooting, which was a huge help.

This is a fun match. If your looking to win this match and put it on your resume for future sponsorship (in my opinion) this is not the match for you. This is a fun match more for bragging rights. I have no idea if there is a cash prize, never asked and never finished high enough to worry about it. The winner gets some kind of trophy or plaque and pictures taken. This will help you be a better shooter and Chad and Jason are always helping someone out with advise or fixing equipment problem.
Last year the most fun target was the spinner with the prairie dog behind it. Lots of laughing and lots of ammo burned up. So much so that some had to manage their ammo consumption to be able to finish the match.
This is a fun match and if you don't come because of a couple of pistol stages your going to miss out on a great day of fun, fellowship, and tips and training on how to be a better shooter.
And that's all I have to say about that. (in my Forest Gump voice).

Went out to Best of the West in Liberty Hill today to get some practice in. Made some good hits and confirmed dope but got to pick my position. They have a barricade so next time I guess I'll have to get in the most awkward position and try to hit the smallest targets that are the furthest away.
I've never done anything like this. Did the Hunting Challenge in March and also in 2016 and had a blast both times. I'm looking forward to it (2 days before I turn 40) and will be open and excited for pistols, throwing rocks, hitting golf balls or taking batting practice off Chad's rag arm!

"When engaging the hostage taker at 350 yards you must first engage the prairie dog at 600 yards. Once you have a clean hit on the prairie dog move to the hostage taker at 350 yards for the remaining rounds you have. Prairie dog is worth 6 points and each hit on the hostage taker is 1 point. Hit the hostage and it is minus 2 points. Max points 10. Round count 5."

I'm having some load development problems on my CTR. I'm sure it's all user error, but I'm not going to sign up for this with 1.5 MOA ammo, and that's about where I'm at right now.

I can help. Bring out rifle and components. No reason your rifle shouldn't hold at least 3/4 MOA.

I may take you up on that after I try a couple more things.
I think the pistol idea is great. If I sign up, I'm 100% for it. I was only kidding earlier - I'm a mediocre shot with the pistol at best. But I do enjoy shooting pistols about as much as shooting rifles - maybe more at times. 25 yards should be interesting.

Sign up you gina. I am trying to figure out if I am shooting factory or hand loads also. Either way it is going to be a hell of a time.
P.S. I am not that good with a pistol either but lets do this.

I'm having some load development problems on my CTR. I'm sure it's all user error, but I'm not going to sign up for this with 1.5 MOA ammo, and that's about where I'm at right now. If I get my ammo figured out before you start advertising elsewhere and it fills up, I'm in. If not, I'll probably come watch and heckle.
What's the problem specifically?

What's the problem specifically?
A lack of accuracy with almost all loads. When I first got the gun, I couldn't make it shoot bad with anything, and now it's gone the other direction.
Gonna try and pull the brake and clean it and the crown to see if that could be the issue. I haven't pulled the brake or cleaned the brake or crown since I installed the brake (about 200-250 rounds ago). Thinking maybe carbon buildup in the brake and on the crown might be the problem.
Also going to try to shoot some factory 140 ELD to see if that shoots good. If so, it's an ammo problem. If not, it's a gun/scope problem (or a shooter problem). Tried varying powder charges, varying lengths, virgin and once-fired brass, bushing size vs using a FL sizer, varying primers (CCI200 & FGMM), etc. with no real improvement at all. Measured concentricity (thanks to Judd for letting me borrow his gauge) and that doesn't seem to be the issue. Almost everything is shooting 1.5-2 MOA. When I first got the rifle, the bad loads shot about 1 MOA.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match - 04/22/18 06:26 PM
Have you cleaned it recently? Also, I won't mix different lots of ammo without cleaning it first. Different powders and different bullet jacket materials leave different frictions inside the barrel which can alter the ammo and accuracy. I seriously doubt it's a carbon build up on the crown or brake in 250 rounds. Give it a cleaning (no oil), dry it out with dry patches, then re-foul it back in, and start shooting with your reloads. A 6.5 CM in a Tikka heavy barrel in combination with good ammo should easily be under 1 moa.
Posted By: patriot07
Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match - 04/22/18 06:46 PM
I've cleaned the barrel every 50-100 rounds. One 8 lb jug of H-4350, one lot of bullets except for a few shots of 143ELDX factory ammo.
If it's not carbon buildup on the crown, then I'm at a loss and I'll probably head out to Jason's at some point with components.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match - 04/22/18 07:16 PM
Look at carbon in the neck too. I'd take an 8mm brass brunch with your favorite carbon killer and work on the neck area of the chamber. I've seen a carbon ring there effect accuracy like that.

This is what it shot like during early load development ("sight" group was 3 shots of 41.5, so I didn't shoot that load again). I want this back!

Sorry to derail the thread. Last update I'll post here is that I took the muzzle brake off and it took a lot of elbow grease to get all the carbon off my crown. Didn't see much of anything in the neck of the chamber, but I ran a brush and then some patches in there anyway. I'll start a new thread if I still can't figure it out.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match - 04/25/18 01:15 AM
Long story short, thanks again to the THF for the help/advice. Not sure who was officially right, but I combined the advice from Jason, Chad, and Judd and she's shooting straight again. Cleaned the chamber & neck area, took the brake off and cleaned the crown off completely, and re-cleaned the barrel very thoroughly with hoppe's solvent, MPro-7, and carb cleaner. Went from 1.5"-2" 3-shot groups for the last 6-8 weeks to .5" 3-shot groups today. No idea which of those changes had the most impact, but at least I know where to start if she decides to start acting up again.
I'll get signed up. My goal will be to avoid the DAL trophy.

Good to hear!! Generally, if the ammo hasn't changed, but the rifle doesn't shoot anything well, then something is going on with the rifle. It's a process of elimination. On a new rifle, it needs to be cleaned more frequently until the barrel gets seasoned in (maybe every 40-50 rounds). Once it's broken in and seasoned in, you can go til accuracy falls off, which should be around 100-200 rounds for a CM. The main thing is to know your rifle. The rifle will talk to you if you know how to listen to it.

Greenville, Texas is a real city about 20 miles south of me. It is where customers stay that drive in from a long way out. Greenville has all of the above, you mentioned. Tell her to dig around the internet for antique stores in the area, I'm sure there are 20 of them within 20 miles of Greenville.

If she's going to be shopping while you're shooting, there are some neat places in Rockwall, which is about 25 minutes from Greenville. One of them that my wife likes a lot is called Rustic Warehouse, on 205 just north of I-30. I'm sure there are some antique places in Greenville too - just don't have any coming to mind right now.
I would stay in Greenville. Close to Jason's, lots to do and lots of good places to eat. If you need food recommendations, let us know what type of food you want and I'll do my best to give you a few places.

Agreed. My wife is a bit of a city girl and she has no problem going to Greenville to shop. We only go to Rockwall if there is a store that Greenville doesn't have, which isn't very often anymore. And we live right in between the two.
Greenville is fine. Nice hotels, good restaurants, etc. Jorge - forgot about the flea market in Quinlan that they have every weekend except first Monday. That might not be a bad idea for your wife to go to. But I doubt if you can uber in Greenville or quinlan. You may need to hitch a ride to the match and let her have the car for the day.

That's exactly right. True antiques that don't cost a fortune, aint in the big cities. People go out into the country and bring them back to the city with a minimum 100% mark up.

The pistol stage is not for points right? I was down in the woods this weekend killing hogs and before I left I shot some practice rounds and fun shooting. I figured I need to practice my pistol skill and boy was I right. 17 rounds at 25yds, looks like buckshot from 125.

One is not for points, but it's burning up the clock. You have to hit the pistol targets before going to your rifle, and those are for points. The other pistol stage is for points.

As usual, I agree with FJG.
For the guys with CHL/LTC’s, the pistol stage should be a stage to gain ground on competitors. If not, why not?
Outside of a match, the average guy around DFW is more likely to need to make a good pistol shot than a 6.5 CM to make a 800 yard shot.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match. Saturday July 21 2018 - 05/01/18 01:42 AM
A good reality check would be everyone should have to shoot a few shots from concealed carry, perform a reload and shoot a few more including time and score.
Try the FBI QIT 99 target at 5 yards, which is about the length of a car in a parking lot. Most civilian engagements are 3 - 7 yards. Shoot 3, reload, shoot 3, in 12 seconds. Score it. Or the most basic proficiency standard is 3-3-3. Draw from concealed carry at 3 yards, 3 shots, in 3 seconds. Same QIT 99 target for score.
Hopefully, folks might practice and it might save a life someday.

I don’t have a LTC but I carry every day and shoot a lot when I can. I don’t shoot for tiny groups. I shoot for speed, practice reloads, and get all rounds in a silhouette from 50yards and in.
That FBI qual ain’t chit. We go from 10 yards, draw from the holster when target turns, shoot 5 reload, shoot 5 reload, shoot 5 in 15 seconds. It’s really easy to keep it in the 10 box. After the first 3 it’s just point and shoot. Pick up the front sight via your peripheral vision with both eyes open.

BP,
understand, but look at the pushback FJG is already receiving. What percent of LTC folks do you think could pass the FBI qual or even just the 3-3-3?
The goal of my comment was to hopefully encourage the average LTC holder to go practice drawing and shooting from concealed carry against the clock with what and how they really carry.
And you do have a LTC from the State, just a different statute with some extras.

I strongly recommend practicing. Come to my range, use one close to home, anything to get some time in the wind.
Get your 6' step ladder out (everyone has one) and figure out what you need to do to stabilize the rifle, on every rung. Dry fire while looking through the scope at a fixed object. It only costs time, but is extremely beneficial.

Yep, have been to the range with it once to get confirm dope out to 1,000. Hoping to head out again next week and use the barricade that Best of the West has. That place always has wind blowing so I'm getting good practice in too. I've also been doing exactly what you suggested, using my step ladder and furniture around the house to work on building a stable position. I don't expect to win this by any means, but I am about as competitive as anyone I know and I want to do well.
I'm grateful to Chad for letting me borrow his rifle and I've already told my wife that my next purchase is going to be a rifle similar to those that will be out there in July, or at least be competitive with them. I'm a tikka fan so I have my eye on the CTR or TAC A1, just an't decide if I want that chassis that the TAC A1 comes in.

My only problem with the Tac A1 is that the extended rail forces you to mount the scope really high. If that's comfortable, then fine. But it is a bit abnormal for a LR precision rifle to have the scope mounted up high like an AR-15.
I do wish I had that 2-stage trigger though.

Makes sense. It has the adjustable cheek peice but would that have to be so high that it's an abnormal shooting position even when shooting prone? I know I would want to swap out the factory CTR stock, which makes me lean toward the TAC A1 but now I'm questioning that.
I would want the 6.5 and it only comes in a 24" barrel, not the 20" like the CTR. Long term I would want to suppress it and with a 24", that's a long gun!

If the cheekpiece was way down low like on a standard stock, it would feel unnatural. As it stands, chassis like this tend to move the bore axis lower within the system to accommodate the higher scope axis. Most top-tier chassis these days have the tube setup. Accuracy International AX, Most XLRs, the new Sako M10s, every gun David Tubb ever designed, Ritter and Stark, even the RPR. The reason everyone is going this direction is that it's actually more comfortable in a lot of ways, and allows for more adjustability and versatility. Don't just look at the AR-height scope rings and think "that's high." It actually works really well.

We are covered up at the shop with wrecked and hail damaged vehicles,also short handed. I'd love to be able to come,but I have no time. All I do is work and sleep,it sucks! I haven't shot a gun since February.

Again, I recommend preparation.
If you don't have time to get to the range, get your 6' stepladder out, and dry fire off the rungs. Go prone, and dry fire/ cycle/ dry fire and some more. It will do you good between now and then.
There is one stage that really is more difficult than your average PRS barricade type stage.

Well, I will approach it like this. I am coming out to have fun. Since this is my first time coming out it will be interesting. Finally got to a friend of mines place that I was able to get out to 700 yards max but wind killed me. So since it was my first time going past 300, I got some dope from 300 to 700. Rounds aren't cronoed so this will be by the seat of my pants. I suck as a pistol shot so that will be interesting. All in all just planning to have a good time.

If we have a 20MPH wind, are you going to help us with corrections or at least tell
us me how far I missed? I'll bring a box fan.

Water, Gatorade and snacks. It was hot out there today. I am not wearing jeans. I may show up ready to play basketball no lie.
When you're bleeding, I'll fix you up.
Just shot The Heatstroke Open for two days. Not a single shade tree to be had. Cotton cargo pants, and long sleeve shirt. Many others do the same.
There's a few pics of you pew pewing on the heatstroke facespace page.

Cool dee. Was a good time with ya this weekend. Good shooting sir!
I have a load charge to evaluate this week.
The difficulty in ejecting cost me time, which cost me points. But the misses were all my fault. The rest of the equipment did a fine job.

Most stages started at port arms. Mag in bolt back before whatever shooting position was needed ie pron or positional.

Also, bring a 5 round and a 10 round rifle magazine if you have it. I have a 5 round AI mag you can use, if not.

Yes, that is fine. Jason mentioned having a 5 round and 10 round mag. There will certainly be a stage that calls for 11 rounds. So, 10 plus an extra round close by is fine.

I've got something new up my sleeve for 800. But to answer your question, the usual targets down there are a 16" and an 8".

Yall are out of your minds if you think Tony will get beat by that many people. He has been doing this longer than any of us. He is a machine with a rifle, and has just developed a hand load on a new 6mm Creedmoor barrel. He used my scale to load it to .02 gr, and laid down a real 1/4 MOA group, at 500 yards on Sunday.
It was 99° out there yesterday. On the platform it wasn't bad. I wasn't even sweating at 4:30 PM. Forecast shows 105° for Saturday, and it dang sure ain't muddy.

I bet with the heat you will have a lot beg off. Maybe I should show up with my 100% stock Tikka and no dialing Leupold to give y’all some competition.
Let me know if you want in, you can use my spot. Nobody else has asked for it.
I doubt anyone has the patience for me to keep the pencil thin barrel cool. Lol. I was only joking unless I have 20 hours to shoot my rounds. I’m pretty sure in that time I would become beer deficient and despondent.

Yall are out of your minds if you think Tony will get beat by that many people. He has been doing this longer than any of us. He is a machine with a rifle, and has just developed a hand load on a new 6mm Creedmoor barrel. He used my scale to load it to .02 gr, and laid down a real 1/4 MOA group, at 500 yards on Sunday. It was 99° out there yesterday. On the platform it wasn't bad. I wasn't even sweating at 4:30 PM. Forecast shows 105° for Saturday, and it dang sure ain't muddy.
You know that wasn't a realistic list, except for the last 2 places.

I assumed the list had accounted for the fact that I plan to shoot for jlbassman and add up his scores with mine to determine final rankings. I think I can compete with Tony if I get double the shots at it.

Couple new stages this year. One will probably cause lots of bitching. Blame:Theguywiththeextremelylongscreenname For all his trash talk.
The other stage will be a crowd pleaser.
Bring tripods and binocs or spotting scopes if you have them. You will be welcome to look though them as much as you like.

Lack of moisture in, and on the ground means the mirage really isn't that bad right now. Patriot07 and I can see the bolt heads on the 800 yard targets. It is 103°F, 43% relative humidity. And really not too bad on the platform, under the shade trees. We gonna be Ok.
DA is 3900' and wind is less than 2 mph, but gusting to 5 mph, as best I can tell.. Sure hope the wind is up on Saturday.

Well, here is my drunk prediction.
1st. JG, if he doesn't win, this match, he should sell all his CHIT and keep farming/fire fighting, give up all shooting. We need good firemen.
2nd. Chad, another Pro, if he doesn't beat JG, he should stick to loading the BEST ammo available and give up shooting.
3rd. Trigger Time, If he doesn't win, he should get some more reamers and just BUILD Rifles.
So, I predict the winner will be DAMNIT KYLE and he will rule the long range shooting world till the Hunters Rifle Match.
But in ALL honestly, I'm pullin for my bro Jeremy, he's got it goin ON !!!!

On a side note, wonder whats the ratio as to how may people have shot the range lately vs never shot it before
In the last month, 7 have shot the range, 13 have not.

Guys,
with the temps extra high, watch for excessive pressure warning signs. I was in a late summer match years ago and a case gave way on a guy. Turned out his primers were flattening out and he just pressed on trying to finish, until he got a face full of blowback. He had shooting glasses on, so was ok thankfully.
If the ammo is sending warning signs, heed them.
Good luck to everyone.

Lay some ammo out on a table or load it in a magazine and pour water on It and shoot it wet . If you are running hot. Primers will start popping. It helps you find a load that will perform in wet weather or extreme heat. At least that's the way it was explained to me by a top PRS shooter. I tried it and it works.

After 19 rounds I wasnt going to chance a blow up and was going to call it quits, but as always the THF steps up and Jason let me shoot his 7mm-08 in place of my rifle and I came back from dead [censored] last to take 9th place overall. So huge thanks to Jason!!! Loved the rifle and it fit me like a glove.
Good seeing everyone again as always it's a good time. Hot as hades but a good time.

Well I guess that settles that question.
Guess you're going to have to pour 44 grains on the hornady, then see what the weight is on the chargemaster, and that's your "new" load. Still sucks, but at least you got to rock a pretty sweet rifle for the 2nd half of the day.
ETA: good thing you didn't keep shooting that. You could have messed up the rifle pretty good with 100 rounds of that kind of pressure.

Thanks, love that CTR!
Most impressive for me was Zane and Tony getting 6 on the hidden prairie dog. Hitting a prairie dog 6 times in 10 shots at 300 is impressive enough. Having to knock a spinner out of the way with 2-3 of those shots and then timing it out perfectly is even more impressive. I think Chad and Jason may have done even better than that, which is just silly.

Great match! Thanks to Jason for organizing everything and putting in all the work to get it all ready. Well organized, designed and executed. Thanks also to Chad for ROing and especially for letting me borrow a rifle, that thing is a hammer! The only thing I didn't like was the 1 MOA target at 800, there must've been some voodoo around it that I couldn't get through. I was tempted to go down and hit it with my pistol before I left.

Thanks to Chad for doing a great job as well. You really kept things moving so we weren't on the line until sundown.

Hopefully I can focus on both tasks.
it seems like you two would have a little bit of an unfair advantage your range your course you set it up
That's why we will not be included in the final scoring of the event this year. Jason and I will shoot it, but not be in the actual running for placement in the match.
with that being said I believe the top 5 Shooters are
1.Gohr
2.Anderson
3. Triggertime / Vesperman Jr. A Tie
5. Vesperman SR.

I don't go through Tom Bean. Go 82 to Bells and 69 to Whitewright then 11 to the range. I mapped it on Google and its actually faster to go 82 to Bonham and 78 to Bailey.

Hopefully I can focus on both tasks.
it seems like you two would have a little bit of an unfair advantage your range your course you set it up
That's why we will not be included in the final scoring of the event this year. Jason and I will shoot it, but not be in the actual running for placement in the match.
with that being said I believe the top 5 Shooters are
1.Gohr
2.Anderson
3. Triggertime / Vesperman Jr. A Tie
5. Vesperman SR.
wow 4 guns from S&S Precision in the top five , and I heard two of them were shooting 223 AI.

You have implied that I am affiliated with S&S which I am not.except for the fact that they build my rifles.As for a Shameless plug I did not know three of the top five shooters until yesterday or what they were shooting . I found it interesting and thought others might too that were not able to make the shoot.Sorry forgiving a young man that works extremely hard at his craft a plug. hopefully if anyone else on this site shamelessly plugs someone they do not get ostracized .

Look into all the local ranges and see what matches they have planned. Fossil Point comes to mind.
Also, look into the local PRS club matches. And there is also the regular PRS matches that are announced.

Water is my heaviest load while hunting. At a match, you're also carrying lots of ammo, and that adds up. They might have water at every station. That has been the prevailing trend for several years.

I wish your place wasn't 260 miles away. I need another shot at that 1 MOA 800 yard plate.
I have a couple trips planned to DFW in the next 2 months but those weekends are full of Great Wolf Lodge with the kids or a BBQ Cookoff in Keller. May try to come out before or after one of those but that would be during the week.
Once November gets here, my only 260 mile trip is to my deer lease south of Wichita Falls.

Alrighty ill get to loading lol.
Any time you have the time to load, do it. If it'll be a while before you're gonna shoot it, load it long. That's just a counter-clockwise turn of the seating die stem. Right before you need it, seat it back to the correct depth. As many cartridges as I load for, once I'm caught up on brass prep, this is what I've been doing.
I only needed one box of 7 Rem Mag recently, but loaded an additional 50, while I was at it. That was on June 4, and I left myself a note LOADED LONG! Once I need that box of ammo, it'll only take about one beer to get it loaded to correct length, while breaking the bullet/ brass bond.

If anyone has a spare 5/8 24 muzzle brake I can borrow that would be awesome. I just had the gun threaded this week and have not had time to take care of that yet.
Done
You da man JG

I'm going to load up just in case but it's looking like I can't join the party. Mamma's car was towed to the shop this morning and my truck might be taking my daughter to soccer and son to karate Saturday. If I can figure out a way to strap this rifle to my motor scooter, I might ride it out there. The problem with that is it's looking like rain and those street tires won't make it down that county road if it's muddy. I also don't want to be pulled over because I have a 40 inch rifle ratchet strapped across my handlebars. I can't catch a break.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match. Saturday July 21 2018 - 09/07/18 01:52 PM
Yes this is still on, go buy your ammo. Even if it was pouring rain we've shot in a lot worse conditions out there. That one Hunters Competition where it was around 30 degrees and rained all morning
If it isn't still on, I guess I'll be out there shooting by my damn self LOL.

I guess Im old but how could you possibly enjoy shooting in a downpour in a puddle of mud, i know the platform is covered.... but?
Is it youth or just want to get away from the wife and kid all day

There's plenty of gravel around the platform. Some stages are still dirt. It we get muddy, mud washes off.

No, I love my wife and kid and love being around them. If my wife was into it and shot competition she'd be with me and as soon as Colt is old enough to hold a gun I'll be grooming him and he'll be at every one I go to.
That being said, I also love shooting, I'm not just a fair weather shooter, I'll shoot in any weather. I personally kind of like the challenge. Snow, rain, mud, heat I don't care really. It isn't youth either, anytime it rains or is starting to get cold my knee and shoulder give me fits and hurt like crazy, but I don't let it hold me back.

Twas time to clean the barrel. Hunters challenge practice, hunters challenge, long range practice and long range match so close to 300 rounds is about time. I will foul it and rezero. Rifle got taken apart too so there is no telling where it is at.

Re: Fourth Annual THF Long Range/Precision Rifle Match. Saturday July 21 2018 - 09/08/18 04:56 AM
Seen on here too many times the warning about a clean barrel not being an accurate barrel. Get those foulers in to confirm zero. Good luck!

I would highly encourage anyone who wants to get into longer range shooting to come out and try it. This is a perfect environment to get started. Everyone is very helpful on helping a new shooter out to get on target and help using their equipment. I'm not out there today, but there are plenty of shooters to assist and help out. Just go do it!!!

Jason, the property owner, also offers Long Range training classes, one on one, everything you need to learn to get better.

Jeff is a good shooter. Not surprised he had a good day. And he doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would let rain bother him at all.
Looks like all of you did pretty well. Was there any stages that were different or not included?

Eff factory ammo!!! I had some stuff that was older and was working fine most of the match. Still 168 GMM but bought it Friday. My holds on pure holds were hitting the top of the berm once we got passed 4 or 500. I had another new box but it wasn't worth it to me. Plus, I was just there to have fun and enjoy the afternoon. I accomplished that and we had a great day at the range with friends.

I was shooting the 178 Amax at the July match. Didn't have time to order more and already had 60 something rounds at the house of GMM so I just ran with it.
