I said in a previous post that “If I win at ASC I wouldn’t care if I finish last in every other match that year.” Well I won and I still feel that way. I can’t thank Rod and John enough for putting on this one of a kind match year after year. As for my score at the match this past weekend, I could not have done it without my father, Tom Sr. I couldn’t have made all of those hits without his wind calls and the load he developed and loaded for me. I hope I can return the favor in the future, so he can smile at his own ASC trophy. I also want to thank my gunsmith Jim at Predator Custom Shop. The two 300 Win Mag’s he built for my father and I are absolute hammers. My rifle is a Remington long action, Rock Creek barrel sitting on a Mcree Precision Chassis Tmag folder the glass is a Nightforce, Badger Rings, base and bolt knob. Lastly a Mountain Shooter sling, the easiest and most effective sling I have ever used. As for dope we used a Kestrel 4500 NV w/BT with the Shooter program on an Android phone. This program was spot-on even past 1700 yards. I have to thank Monica at Nielsen Kellerman for the Kestrel, it worked flawlessly with the Shooter program. Finally I need to thank all the guys that help out on the mountain all weekend and the generous sponsors who donate great gear match after match.
