Re: SHWW Group
Hey DSM. Haven't heard from you guys yet. You planning on coming up fri. night, or sat. AM? BW coming up as well?
Trying to plan out if I'm going to bring the pavilion, or just camp out in the tent for 1 night. Depends on if anyone is going to stay through Sun.

when you get a chance, I'd like to get a comparison from you between the 208 A-MAX and the 220 SMK's regarding accuracy, wind bucking and trajectory.
FWIW - I'm having excellent success with the 220 SMK's. Just couldn't miss with them. However, that Krieger barrel I bought with the ultra tight Palma bore (.298-.3065) combined with the 1:10 twist is just to fast for the light bullets (Lapua and Berger 155's). those little bullets had a mind of their own when they left the barrel.

Re: SHWW Group
Actually, if you could bring your quad, that would be great. A couple of the targets are going to be several hundred yds from the road in clear cuts. But should be quad accessible. Or close to.

No on the 220's/.308 - Ranger is.

Re: SHWW Group
Pm sent.
If you want to bring it all, that's good too. There's plenty of room to set up shorter rnage stuff, & pistols/carbines.

Re: SHWW Group
Ah Big wheels Thank you for the invite. I truly wish I could make it but the better half has a claim staked for that weekend. So unless I want the stake shoved someplace where the splitters would really hurt I have to pass.
Hopefully next time
PS My AICS stock has arrived, all I am waiting for is my barreled action from pac-nor and I will have my 260 rollin

Re: SHWW Group
you kinow if you look at the other link up groups on the hide we seem to be the biggest and certainly the most talkative.
I know Rotor and Bootneck will like this, our home range is limited to 200 yards however, they let us shoot steel;as long as it is safe and properly or commercially constructed. Anyway, I have talked to hide member osuarchitect and he is going to make me a triple spinner on a folding frame. it will have a 2 inch, a 4 inch and a 6 inch disc for use at the 200 yard line.

Ok, wrong again. I went to the range today and proved how wrong I was.

That much shift in impact at only 100 yards! Obviously, I didn't see those impacts when shooting out at the Gorge.
So, without further ado, here is the shot group of the day
and the runner up shot group of the day.
