Man that is great shooting, that is like hitting a 50 cent piece coin 59 times at 300 yards.

68 times, when you add in his sighters!

@Rope2horns Hello Norm, The cartridge is an improved version of 6BR with pronounced modifications to the outside and internal radii that integrate well with the FL sizing die geometry. As with all my cartridges, I only allow for .0015" of base growth and 1⁰ lead for better suitability with berger hybids. Capacity wise hovers between 6BR and 6BRA.

Is that a record, Damon? And are you taking that to SWN?

Is that a record, Damon?

Yep, it's the South Bay Range Record so far as I know. It's not an NRA Record mostly because we don't run an NRA Registered match (yet...).

If we did run a Registered match, it's possible he could have set the record. The current 20 shot record for F-Class at 300 yards is 200-20x + 12, which is less than his 400-40x to open on Saturday

Sadly the NRA doesn't recognize 3x300 for the 60-shot F-class Midrange aggregate: only 300/500/600 or 3x600. That record is 600-54x, though, and I have no doubt that he could have done it if only we didn't have that mountain in the way!
