First sanctioned match

[peterf225]

Today I shot my first 600 yd sanctioned match. I was shooting my 6x47L with pointed 108 Berger BTs. I finished with a 582-18X. This wasn't my first time shooting 600 yds. Our local club runs a non-sanctioned match that I shoot in every once in a while. I have to say I had a blast even though the switching winds ate my lunch on the last relay.

Like I said it isn't the first time I've shot 600 yds. I've shot scores of 583 and 584 with this gun already but using pointed 105 Lapua sceaners. I try my best to give them hell. This is the first match that's sanctioned so the scores are turned into the NRA.

I have yet to see anyone classified above master starting out but with 97% you are showing its possible! Good luck with next match!! Mike

I do have to give credit to my equipment and the guys that have taught me to shoot. I am fortunate to be able to shoot with guys who are very willing to help newer shooters.

BTW here are the specs of the rifle I'm shooting:
Rem 700 SA (has sako extractor installed)
Krieger 1-8" twist 26" RV chambered in 6-47L no turn neck
B&C A2 stock bedded to action
Sigthmark 8.5-25x50
Harris 6-9 swivel notched leg bipod with modified lock.
