This past year there were 3 shooters using a 6XC in the top 25 in the PRS, and 4 in the top 25 in the NRL. It’s clearly a very capable round in the hands of a good shooter. 6MM DASHER LOAD DATA 6 Dasher Load Data. The 6mm Dasher was the most popular cartridge overall among these shooters with 27% of the top-ranked shooters in the PRS & NRL choosing to run that cartridge. Of the 47 shooters using a 6 Dasher, 100% of them were using handloaded ammo. None of the major ammunition factories have started offering 6mm Dasher ammo at this BULLET JUMP & SEATING DEPTH: BEST PRACTICES & CONVENTIONAL Bullet jump is basically the distance a bullet travels before it touches the rifling in the barrel. That gap is relatively short distance that typically ranges from 0 to 0.150 inches, although it could be longer in some factory or magazine-fed rifles. There is a lot going on in a chamber in the tiny window when a round goes off. 6 & 6.5 CREEDMOOR LOAD DATA 6mm Creedmoor Load Data. The 6mm Creedmoor (6CM) was the second most popular cartridge used by these top shooters, with 20% of the top-ranked shooters choosing to run it. It was only behind the 6mm Dasher in terms of popularity. The 6mm Creedmoor has 25% more case capacity than the 6mm Dasher and other cases based off the 6BR, whichmeans you

To recap, here is a look at the 4 cartridges and rifles used for the recoil tests: 6.5 CREEDMOOR BARREL LENGTH & MUZZLE VELOCITY One of my closest friends has two 6.5 Creedmoor rifles made by Surgeon Rifles that he has tried a couple different barrel sizes on. He started with a 26″ barrel, because that is what Surgeon typically used but lately we’ve been shooting in more practical/tactical long-range competitions where you have to carry the rifle for miles every day so he wanted to lighten the load.

The Gunwerks G7 BR2500 Rangefinder is a very capable device with an accurate ballistic engine on-board, which I’ve personally used to get first-round hits out to 1 mile. I also believe it’s one of the easiest to program and use in the field. The street price is $1600. 1 shooter said they used a Kahles ranging binocular. LONG-RANGE CALIBERS & CARTRIDGES: WHAT THE PROS USE PRS Divisions. In 2016, the PRS introduced new divisions. All shoot the same course of fire. Open Division: Able to use a rifle chambered in any cartridge 30 caliber or smaller with a max muzzle velocity of 3,200 fps. Tactical Division: Restricted to 2 traditional military and law enforcement calibers: .308 Win or 5.56 NATO/.223 Rem.CUSTOM RIFLE STOCKS

The data is based on a survey of the top 50 shooters in the Precision Rifle Series (PRS). The PRS tracks how top competitors place in major rifle matches across the country. RIFLE BIPODS & TRIPODS The Harris bipod is very durable, because of its simple/robust design and high-quality materials. This is the biggest difference between a $20 Amazon-knockoff brand bipod and the $100 Harris bipod. Most of the parts are an aluminum alloy, but Harris uses steel on the critical connections or parts that might wear. RIFLE SUPPRESSOR & MUZZLE BRAKE The Omega is a 7” titanium suppressor that weighs just 14 ounces! It’s a 30 caliber can that is rated for full auto and up to a 300 Win Mag. It retails for $1100. Thunder Beast Arms Corp (TBAC) was close on their heels, with 22 shooters represented among the top 100shooters.

It is Federal’s “match grade” version of its standard large rifleprimer, the 210.
BEST RELOADING BRASS: COMPARISON OF MANUFACTURER 93.48. 4.6. 1.36. The chart below illustrates the two most important criteria from these findings: Standard Deviation – Probably the most useful measure, because it essentially indicates how similar the weights were from one another (uniformity = accuracy). In general, standard deviation (SD) indicates how much variation or “dispersion LAPUA 223 REM BRASS WEIGHT VARIATION In fact, it wasn’t much different than weight distribution of some super-cheap, once-fired Remington 223 brass I bought for 1/5 of the price (the average deviation of the Lapua brass was actually higher). Here is the resulting data for the Lapua brass, so you can compare for yourself: Average = 96.28 grains. Standard Deviation = 0.70 grains.

Vectronix released the Terrapin X a few months ago, which is a consumer-grade rangefinder with a street price of $1800.While it doesn’t have the same extreme performance as its military-grade big brother, it is capable of ranging beyond 2000 yards, even in bright/midday conditions (see field test data).The Vectronix Terrapin X provides very accurate ranges well beyond the ranges most long HOW FAST DOES A BARREL ERODE? 0.077” is a relatively small distance. To put it into context, a credit card is around 0.032” thick, so the amount of erosion we’re talking about over the life of a barrel is barely more than the thickness of two credit cards.Of course, I’ve heard of guys who kept shooting barrels until there was over an inch of rifling missing, but less than 1/10th of an inch is more common. LONG-RANGE CALIBERS & CARTRIDGES: WHAT THE PROS USE Yeah, the 6 SLR seems to be a great design. I looked into a little more this year after seeing that more guys were running it. It has the long neck and 30 degree shoulder like the 6XC and most of the other cartridges that are popular with long range guys, but with a littlemore case capacity.

Alright, on to the rifle stock/chassis results! Here is the overall popularity for each brand of precision rifle stock for 2014, as well as how those brands were represented in the previous 2 years. RIFLE SUPPRESSOR & MUZZLE BRAKE Hey, Jay. I appreciate the input. It sounds like you may be more familiar with this than me, so you may be exactly right. I may have not worded that correctly, so I changed that list item to “Some believe more weight at muzzle may theoretically improve precision (similar to a barrel tuner, but not adjustable – read a great article on how a barrel vibrates).” RIFLE BIPODS & TRIPODS This article covers the bipods and tripods the top 170+ precision rifle shooters in the country are running. It’s based on a recent survey I conducted of the top 125 shooters in the Precision Rifle Series (PRS) and top 50 shooters in the National Rifle League (NRL), which are points-race leagues based on the biggest long-range, field-based rifle matches across the country.

This landmark article shares new, primary research that Mark Gordon from Short Action Customs has compiled over the past 2 years. He tested a wide range of bullet jumps in several rifle/load configurations, and this post shares the analysis of that data. Mark used a similar approach to the Audette Ladder Test and OCW method, but the goal was to not find the most forgiving powder charge weight, but the most forgiving bullet jump. He wasn’t looking for the specific bullet jump that grouped the best, but the largest window of bullet jumps that provided a similar point of impact. That means the rifle would be more consistent from the start of the match to the end of it or could shoot a particular kind of match-grade factory ammo really well for a longer period of time. Mark’s findings may seem counter to conventional wisdom when it comes to bullet jump, but a few national-level precision rifle competitors also support the idea, which I highlight in this post as well.Read More »

This article focuses on how quickly the lands of a rifle barrel usually erode, especially for mid-sized cartridges that are popular in precision rifle matches. It also explains how many shooters try to manage their seating depth and bullet jump over the life of the barrel. These are topics don't seem to get much attention and are rarely discussed in any comprehensive format, so hopefully it provides some useful information and tips. The article also poses some questions that might make us rethink priorities when it comes to managing bullet jump, at least when applying the concepts to some specific shooting disciplines where you might fire 100-200 rounds over the course of a weekend.Read More »

A few months ago, I published an article about the devices and apps the top precision rifle shooters were using to calculate their ballistics. We saw that 76% used a Kestrel Ballistic Weather Meter, and 22% used some kind of phone app (see the data). However, most shooters don’t ever touch a Kestrel or their phone while they’re on the clock shooting a stage at a rifle match. Match directors create stages with tight time constraints and/or barricades to intentionally induce stress. Fumbling with buttons and electronics under stress is not a great plan, and inevitably that’s the kind of ...Read More »
