F T/R Competition 300 Yard 20 shot record

I hope not! That was some fine shooting. I was in the pits in the lane next to where you were shooting, and we all pretty impressed by what you were doing!
What kind of match was it? Registered or Approved? It makes a difference, scored from Approved matches cannot be used for national records.
Great shooting in any case.

Congrats, thats some fine shooting. Did you take any pictures? What kind of rifle did you use? where was the match?
Thanks guys!
The match was registered, and held at Catawba Valley Rifle and Pistol Club in Conover, NC.
308 - I've got some pics of the target, cause I gave it to the stat officer.
My rifle is a Savage Target Action, Brux barrel 28.5", McMillan A-th, mystic precision bipod. All put together in a weekend spent at Nik Taylor's shop watching him work his magic.
DL - 175 OTMs

I'm happy for you that it was registered. I know of two people that have shot records in approved matches... kind of a bummer.
Congrats, post that picture. On another note, at our matches we shoot 3 rounds of 15 shots? Is there a standard for 300 yard matches?

Stop shooting the golf tees, flying wood is not safe, besides the destroying range property is not cool... Seriously, that is one hard shooting. Congratulations on a performance others dream about.
Thanks again guys.
Ted - There is a 20 shot and 15 shot course of fire

I'll try and figure out how to post the pic.

If your match director and/or you don't notify the NRA of the record it will never be posted. A sling shooter I shoot with learned that the hard way. Scores went in, nobody said anything, and by the time he called in to see what was up his record was broken.
This is one of those things that the NRA is very slow to get to.

Very nice. I will be coming to comps there starting next year. Hopefully you will be retired by then 
. I'm going to shoot 6BR in F Open and .308 in F-TR. BTW, I shoot the same 175 OTM in .308. I like them very much.

Sorry jelrod, just getting started really
. This barrel will be shot out soon though so you'll probably be beating me next year. I honestly used them cause I ran out of 185s and I had them on hand. I was shocked at how well they shot, and will use them much more often now.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free
Snapped a cell pic of the back of the target, front was a mess.
Man, look at that thing! The guy only dropped 1 point all day! He was shooting on target 7 while I was scoring on 8. I'll tell you everybody in the pits was talking about his shooting that day.
