So, I found me a RL16 load with my 147 ELDm that gets SD 4, ES 10, and 2830 FPS at DA of 4300. No pressure signs whatsoever. Should be interesting to test out to distance.

Come down to the San Diego Precision Rifle Club monthly match in at Pala. It's off the 15 south of Temecula and . Last Sunday of each month we have upwards of 50 shooters each month. Steel out to 900 with plenty of targets. We'd love to have you all out! Members of the club compete within the NRL, PRS and Rifleman's Team Challenge

Bro, I beat you by like 2 pages lol. I’m still trying to figure out how to get out camping. I shouldn’t have sold my truck
I'd like to.
Can I make it to the locale with 7.5 inches of ground clearance and a few rifles?
For now I just have a .308 and a few K31's.

"A few" K31's?? Wow. I miss mine. Based on what has been said in this thread so far, to get to the shooting site, I don't think it will take much off-roading.
I'd love to go as it's 20 minutes from my house. But I don't shoot on Sundays.
I'd love to get detailed directions how to get to this site. I'd also love to arrange another get together. I can't make this first one.

pretty much any veh thats not lowered is probably ok. worst case we can park cars IVO of the turnoff and bring stuff in trucks
even a stock truck ot mid sized suv crossovers should be fine
what type of vehicle?
What day is everyone planning on getting out there? It’s a 2.5 hour drive for me from OC. I’ll probably be out there around 9 Saturday morning.
If someone else wants to come out and play, I can ABSOLUTELY be out there Friday in the afternoon. I would love nothing else than to be out there from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon.
Man I wish I could, but I have work. Idk if I’ve asked this or not but are we gonna have short range targets? I need to test out my ar pistol and hopefully do some pistol shooting too.
I'm bringing a short range target stand. This exact one. Yes, pistol to AR transitions, etc.
Gotta keep the razor's edge sharp.

Well we at SDPRC always welcome new members if you so decide to shoot Sundays
I do wanna head down at one of the Saturday train-ups. Just need to do final testing on my 130g 6.5CR load this weekend. I work Sundays usually.
Looks like a good spot. I used to get out to +/-900 yds at a spot off of Dillon and Deception Rd, until it was closed down a couple years ago. Still trying to get my new setup together, so won’t be able to make it out this time around, but have a few steel targets and 4x4 to hopefully make it out the next time.
You can shoot my rifles! LOL. I'll just bring more ammo! I got a mess of Prime 6.5 Creed, Hornady, handloads, etc.
ill probably be out there Friday afternoon when i get off work could be super early or like 5 or 6 but i will probably stay out all weekend now that family will be out of town. between us, im sure we can have most stuff setup and ready to go by the time people actually show up. maybe even some shooting......
heck ill shoot em if he passes
so hawt...
i was trying to get my second rifle set up but the scope i ordered was on back order via expertvoice and im not paying full price
nothing fancy
getting a cheap vortex diamondback for my old r700 .308
should be enough to train with at closer distances.

HELLS TO THE YEAHHHH!!!
I, my good Sir, will be out there probably in the early afternoon. I'll leave my place at 10-ish and be there around 1-ish. Heavily on the -ish.
I wish CA didn't have 10 mandatory Gun jail sentencing. I'd have my Tikka 7mm Rem Mag out there!!
Its worse when the gun is still being made, and only after that comes gun jail!
Good news/bad news
Good News: my 147 ELD Match load came together today with Reloder 17. So, we gonna be validating some trajectory buuuullshit up in the desert!!! YESSS
Bad News:
My Tikka 7mm RemMag is in jail. #TikkaLivesMatter

If you have room for one more I’d be coming down from Fort Irwin/Barstow area. I’ve got a 45% IPSC on a t post we can place as close as people need, as well as another 45% that hangs off chains.
My AI is up at a friends place that had a side project with it, so I’ll be blasting away with my 556 gasser.
I can link up whenever everyone else is on the 22-24 range.

UH YEAHH!!! There’s ALWAYS more room for more shooters! Come on down! I’ll catching you on the 22nd!
‘Murica
It’ll be a party. What time are you thinking on the 22nd? I’m about two hours away and am pretty flexible.
I’ll also be bringing the dog, but she just will hang out in the truck when we are going hot (still working on getting her to wear ear pro).
I’ll have to zero some stuff real quick since I’m swapping around some optics to come play.

Temps looking at mid 70s for the highs
and high 40s for lows

I'm all in. Just got my possum hollow bore guides in the mail so I can get a good clean and rezero on Thursday!
IN! Ammo loaded, rifle semi-clean, whiskey (rye and bourbon) taste tested.
Getting some of these here fancy things too. I'm over the bulky plastic MTM type ammo thingies LoL

For my 6.5CR I loaded up 100 of my 147 ELDm's with my H4350 (2700 fps) and R17 (2680) loads on top of the 60 or so factory Hornady 147 ELDm's I have left... and a mess of Prime 130g.
If anyone wants to shoot a handful of Prime 130g, I'm more than happy to hand it out. I just need that brass for reloading in return.
You got it. I'll bring out a baker's dozen ?
Out of my Proof M24 24" it does 2945, SD of 9-15, and ES of 20-25. 7 mils at 1000 with a .289 G7 BC.
