    Washington state monthly matches at Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club

    Hi, Any chance I could get into the match this Saturday? I thought I would be traveling but my trip got re-scheduled, so I can actually make it up there. I just shot the FSC match in Ellensburg last Saturday, and man do I have a long way to go in this sport. Shamir

    2014 2nd Annual Matt Karstetter Memorial Field Match, Wilbur WA

    Awesome. Mine's the .40 cal, but I've been thinking of getting a trigger job and .357 sig drop-in barrel. I need to stop tinkering with my guns and shoot them more though :-). Shamir

    2014 2nd Annual Matt Karstetter Memorial Field Match, Wilbur WA

    Looks like I am going to make this event as well. And I just bought my first pistol (a Springfield XDm 5.25) a couple of weeks ago, so it should be perfect for this match. Looking forward to it - should be a blast.

    2014 FSC April 26-27 Ellensburg WA

    Thanks all, and especially Scott, for an awesome match. It was my first one, and a tough one with the wind shifting all the time, but it was blast, and I am sure I will be seeing you all again.

    2014 FSC April 26-27 Ellensburg WA

    If we get there early, can we get sighted in and check dope? I can be there at 8.30, and it shouldn't take more than 30 minutes.

    2014 FSC April 26-27 Ellensburg WA

    Looks like the only reasonable hotel options are in Yakima, about 45 minutes south.

    Does anybody have the range address? I just got confirmed, but looks like I missed some emails. Looks like I need to book a hotel ASAP.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Need a full size .40 S&W which one Springfield XDM.M&P or a Glock

    I went with the Springfield XDm 5.25. Its a bit more expensive (~$700), but it seems like the best option for an out of the box competition pistol. And comes with some nice accessories as well. Haven't picked it up yet, so I can't comment on shooting it yet.

    Range Report 6.5 Creedmoor Velocity/Ballistics Conundrum

    Could be that your scope tracking is off to. Have you box-tested or confirmed the scope's tracking in some other way?

    Washington state monthly matches at Upper Nisqually Sportsman's Club

    My second kid just decided to come a couple of weeks early, so I am going to have to bow out of this one. Bummed about missing it again, but c'est la vie.

    I'd be interested. Sunday works better for me since I'll be driving from Portland, and it's easier to do that on Saturday. Shamir

    SSA brass

    I'm pretty sure SWA mentioned that somewhere. The 260 ammo I have from SWA is headstamped SSA.

    Rifle Scopes Minox finally gets into the game

    Interesting. MSR style reticles look good too, although no Christmas tree options. Has anyone actually looked at a physical copy to check it out. Minox has a good reputation for price/performance with its glass, so these could give Vortex a run for its money if they are good. Shamir

    SSA brass

    I don't reload, but I shoot southwest ammunition's .260 remington ammo, which is loaded with SSA brass. Shoots about 3/4 moa out of my Tikka T3 Sporter, with the occasional group approaching 1/2 moa . I'm a noob, and thats about the best I've ever shot :-). Shamir

    Sorry to hear that Anton. I hope you get better soon, and I'll see you at next month's event. This year's flu season has been especially nasty; hearing lots of folks who've been laid up. Shamir

    Newbie looking for adivce for rifle purchase

    Welcome to the Tikka club :-). Which one did you end up getting? Also, KRG has a new light-weight chassis which is due to ship in April - might be a good upgrade to the standard tikka stocks.
