Radelow Blades Spring Series by Southwest ULR, June 2019 Recap. This was a very fun shoot, we will all remember for a long time, conditions were ideal, and everyone made multiple hits over 1 Mile. Our course of fire was 3 targets 1766, 2144 and 2620 yards. Rommel Jimenea, and his Vestal Customs built 375 Cheytac consistently hit every target during every string and the 2144 target 4 times in a row, finishing as this month’s Top Gun. His consistent performance spoiled Tonny Wong’s attempt at a three-peat. Tonny, our defending Top Gun, was un-crowned finishing as the runner up. Both Rommel and Tonny were awarded with 150 of cutting edge bullets compliments of Cutting Edge Bullets.
This was Ashley Williams and Scott Armstrong’s first time shooting with Southwest ULR, and it was very clear this was not their first rodeo, and they put on a very impressive performances finishing third and fourth respectively. A strong freshman performance like this means trouble for the rest of us. Even more impressive is Scott’s infamous 7mm STW, that bested 338s,375s, and 416s at subsonic distances. Kurt Stoned rounded out the top five in a very competitive field of shooters, had Kurt not been a full rotation off on his optic on the first stage it would have been a good ole fashion 3-way Mexican standoff for the Top Gun.
Southwest ULR has also received generous new sponsorship from Desert Tactical and Vestals Custom Rifles. The directors and shooters would like to thank our sponsors, Radelow Blades, Vortex Optics, Cutting Edge Bullets, Desert Tech, Vestals Customs Rifles, Precision Arms, and Snipetac for your support, we greatly appreciate it!
