Hi Steve, we drew the targets up ourselves and had local steel shops cut them out. I've got photos of them, but I really need to put a standard drawings package together so that other people can use them.

Stepping up to the next level. I dropped my Rifle off with Chuck yesterday. He's taking it to the Smith either today or next week. I am having a 260 built. I told Chuck I am going to kick his Ass this year and finally beat Scotty and Clint also.

So look out guys I am gunning for you this year.

Merry Christmas everyone.

whats the next level ? I thought your present gun shot well. who is Chuck taking your gun to?

ScottyS · 12-13-2011, 05:32 PM

Haha, Tom!

All you guys leaving the .308 behind.......you are forcing my hand.

The next level for me is being able to go out and practice more and then kick Chucks Ass.

When I started playing this game my work was coming to a screeching crash and I was out of work for over 18 months. So I was not able to go out and practice like I needed to be very competitive.

As far as my Rifle it was just a stock 700p. When I first started to develope a load for it. I couldn't load any rounds in the Magazine because the lands were so far out there. Now to reach the lands the 175's won't even seat in the case. So I figured I needed a new barrel and I have been reading alot about the 260 so I figured I would give it a try.

I am having Spartan Precision Rifles do the work for me.

Sounds like the long range silhouette is getting serious. Fine tuning my 6.5 Lapua tubber setup. Hopefully I can get some load development/practice time in over the winter. Still, it is challenging to compete against that .308 that shoots 9 out of 10 in the wind!! Looking forward to 2012 schedule, looks great.
Best wishes to all and Merry Christmas.

Whats the yardage to the Targets in the Long Range Silohuette.

I finally have my 260 up and running, so now I think I have run out of excuses for my poor shooting ability
