What did you do at the range lately?

IDPA yesterday, no range time today but my granddaughters helped me sort some cans of 38spl/9mm brass after we got back from the school playground.

So, you were collecting brass from the school playground?

Well played. Almost got coffee out the nose.

Went out to Fort Carson to finally get around to sighting in my 260 Rem, 17HMR, 223 Rem and 7mm-08 bolt guns. Shot out at range 2 and there was just two of us.

My 260 Rem likes the 139gr Scenar ammo from Southwest.



Not so much on the Barnes 120 TTSX load



Had fun taking a crack at the steel antelope at 411 yards with my 223 Remington and the scuba tanks at 600+ yards. Antelope was pretty simple but had trouble hearing hits on the scuba tanks.

Helped some Scouts realize they can hit a clay from 100 yards using a .22. Also had several shooting paintballs off golf tees at 50 feet using iron sights. They were lined up to try the (relatively) long range shooting.

Took my 6 Grendel that member AKA Spook built for me out for some load development. Varget was a little high pressure with the really accurate load, so I decided to try H4895 with 105 Berger Hybrids.

I had also swapped out uppers. I had it in a LaRue OBR Lite upper and I moved it to a VLTOR monolithic upper. The monolithic uppers make mounting scopes much easier. And of course, a Thunderbeast suppressor and a S&B 4-16x42.

This is 5 shots at 610 yards. Pretty happy with that.

I took my new 223 Ackley bolt gun to a match yesterday.

I had my new Terminus action barreled by Fritz at Black Canyon Rifles a few weeks ago. This replaced my Bighorn that was being an asshole feeding and caliber with a 223 based case. This action feeds like butter. Much smoother than the Bighorn.

Using a stout load of Varget in Lapua brass, I am pushing 80 gn Sierra bullets just over 3,000 fps.

I really like the minimal recoil and noise. After a string of 7 shots, my RO told me that the timer didnt pick up a single shot. My reply "You say that like its a bad thing." Gotta love Thunderbeast suppressors.

Here is a picture from a couple weeks ago. I was practing shooting off a tripod at 1,000 yards.

I shot a couple hundred rounds through my old LaRue OBR Lite (5.56) yesterday at the Pueblo Tactical Rifle Match. 10-12 years old and several barrel changes later, it is still a hammer.

Now I have to figure out which AK to use next month for the AK vs AR match.

[Doc45]

Ran a few rounds through my Baer TRS and most importantly finally sighted in the XPS2-O I bought a while back for my 6920. The funny part was that the guys on the two lanes to my right each hit my target!! The RO had a chat with them.

[wctriumph]

Took my daughter out again and after about 20 rounds at 10 yards she felt she needed a bit more challenge so she went and moved the target back to just about 20 yards and she was still able to hit the ten ring. She gets better every time she shoots. She hung a target in her room and does dry fire practice two or three times a week. Last night after I went to bed I could here the hammer falling for about 30 minutes.
I spent some time with my 686 and SKS, been a while since I took the 686 out for a round and she still impresses me, best handgun I have ever owned, never sell her.
