I'm new to the forum here and new to reloading but I have a feeling that once I'm into the full swing of reloading for my .243 and testing loads, etc I will not be satisfied with shooting unless I can get into some competitive shooting eventually.
The more I look into and research some of this I'm really interested in the 6 Norma BR rifles and I'm a Savage kinda guy and I see they have a production rifle in that caliber. Would a Savage production rifle be good enough to get started into a little competitive shooting in the Midwest area? I'm not looking to break any world records or anything but would love to hang out and shoot with guys that like shooting as much as I do.
I need to do a little more searching to see how many opportunities I'd even have to shoot in the Midwest area. I'm in SE Iowa and would be interested in knowing what kind of competitions exist within a 500-600 mile range of where I'm at. On the same note, are there any guys reading this from Iowa, especially Eastern Iowa that I could pick there brain a little face to face sometime?
Sorry for all the questions, just a nooobie looking for a little guidance. ;D
