Recap of the URSA NorCal Mar ‘21 event (by RD, Lynn Dragoman; build info, comments, and stats from Oscar)
Shooters, we had 11 guns on the line this last Sunday. We didn't get any new qualifiers for the 3K but we did put a lot of shots downrange trying. We ended up with 6 shooters qualifying for the record target.
New shooter Shawn used my 375 CheyTac to get in the match. He and Calguns regular RickyRacer87 both got 3 hits at 2054 yards. We will hold a sudden death shoot-off between Shawn and RickyRacer87 in May.
RickyRacer87 had 6 hits during his 10-shot qualification string, so he also got another achievement point, his third.
We held a fun shoot for everyone after the match and Calguns’ gunsmith extraordinaire Skkeeter (Billy Goat Machine) took top honors with 4 hits out of 10 shots (no sighters or practice shots allowed for any shooter). Nice shooting Skkeeter!!!
Next month is the 3K where we will start shooting at 2500 yards. Hopefully the snow, rain, and wind will cooperate?
Pics in the Gallery, again thanks to RickyRacer87!
RR87, was shooting 300 gr Hornady A-TIPs out of a Billy Goat Machine/BGM-built .338 LM AI (Ackley Improved) with BGM “OVIS” (Defiance Deviant Tactical) action, Bartlein 31.5” barrel, Manners T5A stock, Nightforce ATACR 7-35x56 SFP scope, and ERATAC 0-70 MOA adjustable base/rings.
