1918 yards shoting Yes i said 1918 yards

[tjonh2001]

308nate, grit and myself went shooting last week. the famous 308nate was shooting his 7mm-300wsm shooting 180 bergers, grit shot his 300 rum with 210 bergers, mine was my 7mmwsm shooting 180 bergers. the targer was a steel plate roughly 18x24(i think). we set the target and had to drive almost 3 miles to get to our shooting position.

here is pictures of us shooting

grit

myself

the conditions that we were shooting in were 1918 yards with 5-9.9mph wind.

the results we actually hit it. i was the only one suprised. the other guys are seasoned pros this was my longest shot ever. great shooting nate and grit and thanks for letting me join in on your fun.

im sure that i missed alot of the story but at work and thought you guys would want to check this stuff out.

Here are some more pictures of the shoot. when you are looking at the rock that looks like a triangle you have to move up 1/3 of the picture and jsut to the left. the second opening in the snow. you will see our target. this was taken through the leica spotting scope. at the end of the day we let that triangle rock have some berger Lead.

Man, you guys have a nice place to shoot . I would be proud of those shots !! Those are some nice looking rifles to . I'm breaking in my 300rum now , it has a 26'' broughton heavy sporter on it, i've got some 210 bergers i'm going to try . I was wandering what powder, primer load combination grit shoots ?

that steel looks like a whole bunch of fun. my boy likes exploding milk jugs right now but steel could give him another experience. thanks for sharing.

Oh yeah, i like your shootin mat!

Awesome! I wish I had a place like that to shoot. What was the range to the triangle rock? How many shots did it take to get your target dialed in?

yeah.....nice shooting mat.

Pretty sure that interupted fluting is done by 308nate himself. Go to his website to see pics of it. Staight Shot Gunsmithing

Looks like a swarovski laying on the ground in several of those pictures.

What state were you guys in?

 

[grit]

We're in North Dakota, where Santa doesn't come 'cause it's too **** cold. The barrels are Brux barrels. The interrupted fluting is a real eye catcher. The RUM was built by me. The other two rifles were built by Nathan Dagley, Straight Shot Gunsmithing, AKA 308 Nate. They are works of art!

We actually used the GPS for rangefinding. The load was 91.6 grains H1000, 215M's, and 210 bergers. Velocity was 3180. Nate'll have to tell the rest.
