A week ago Friday we finished setting up steel for WY-SHOT. Our specialty pistol shooters will be engaging steel from about 175 yards, to out past 1450 yards :) That was not a typo. After Dan and I moved a couple of targets that were hard to see, we set-up the longest one. We went back to where...

How many of you attend different competitions, whether it is for fun, in all seriousness, or somewhere in between? What kind of comps do you shoot in? Rimfire? Centerfire? Air Rifle? Types of matches? Be descriptive please, like benchrest (what kind of BR)? NRL PRS ARA F-Class (Rimfire, F-TR...

How many here have 16"-16.5" (Even 17" info appreciated) 6.5 PRC's, shooting 130-140 grain bullets? With these bullet weights in mind, I am considering H-4350, H-4831sc and RL 26. Actual velocities with the brass/powder/bullet combinations you have would be appreciated. I have all three of the...

On two different days this past week, I went out to Mac’s Gunworks to finish up a little bit of load development with one XP, but also to try different things from standing positions for a future South Africa hunt. It’s odd, how you can have something in your mind a certain way, and you only...

Still have not set dates yet, but I plan to take a small group of folks (All handgun hunters) to South Africa in the Summer of 2026. I took a 357 Mag revolver and a problematic XP-100 last time which created all kinds of headaches (The XP), despite good success. Next year, there will be no Bog...

If you have a 6GT, give us a description (pictures would be awesome), and why you chose the 6GT. I have two them myself. Both are rear-grip specialty pistols. The first one, is a re-barrel job, on a Christensen Arms, Modern Precision Pistol (MPP). I do not think they make them anymore...

I have enjoyed the "Favorite XYZ" cartridge threads. At first, I didn't really think about it, I just answered. But the more I read, the more a specific thought came to mind....I am not really a "favorite cartridge" or "I hate this cartridge" guy. I am always the guy who is looking for a...

I had a great time in TX with an old friend and with some new ones. I was able to help with a handgun hunting course, put on by Texas Parks, and Wildlife, and then at night, we were hunting for hogs and predators. During the day hunting, a first time handgun hunter (attended the class), who...

I try to get down to Texas every year or every other year to do some hunting at night with a good friend. Last year, was my first time to be able to use a specialty pistol (center-grip 6mm Creedmoor) at night for critters. Critters = hogs, coyotes, fox, and bobcat. This time I will be taking...

I am still on a number of forums. There is one forum I am on which is notorious for "Flaming Others", and I am not talking about The Hide either. I typically only interact on the Long Range Hunting section there, and I know @FOTIS is on there as well. All of that being said, I really appreciate...

Below is a picture of my Kauger Arms (action & Stock) 6GT Black Widow put together by Omega Precision/Peter Angelos. 15.9" Bartlein 7.5T barrel, H-S Precision bottom metal, Kelbly trigger, and a Holland Radial Baffle brake Hornady Factory ammunition: 109 ELD-M’s at 2710 FPS. The speed surprised...

7T Rock barrel, 223 Remington-15-16 inch barrel length. What bullet would you use for hogs? Typically under 200 yards.

Some rock chuck hunting will involve drive up and park and shoot, and other will involve a hike of a mile or so. Taking two XP's. Both 22 Creedmoor's. One is center-grip and the other is a rear grip. Shooting 80 ELD-M's with the rear and 88 M's with the center. I am being taken by a friend. I...

Some videos before WY-SHOT...Me shooting Glenn's new 6.5-284 XP-100 at 1296. Then some pd LR videos from the last day. We had really strong winds Monday and Tuesday, and even got rained out late Monday afternoon. Biggest group I have ever had - 31 shooters. Lot of fun, but I was pretty wiped out...

Thursday afternoon late, after getting steel set up for both shooting courses, Glenn and I went over to to the Long Course. Dan and Bob were just getting done too, and asked where the longest target was. Stage 1 Target #7 (18" or 20 ") was 1380 yards, but we were a long way to the right from...

I picked up one of the New SSK frames...Contender frame recently. I have several barrels for it, since I already have a G-2 frame. The barrels I will use on it is my 22lr, 7x30 Waters, and my SSK 30-30AI barrels. 30-30AI is going on first, and it has a muzzle brake on it, so I put a rifle scope...

My yearly long-range steel and prairie dog shoot (WY-SHOT https://sebrests-usa.com/wy-shot/), which is a handgun only match, is coming up in about 5 weeks. Nosler is participating in our prize table this year. It is nice they will even help the little shoot out. I just thought they deserved a...

Saturday afternoon late I was able to head out with a friend to do a little doggin with a couple of XP's. He christened his 6.5 PRC XP-100 with his first dog, and it was fun to be there for that. He has already killed a buck antelope with it in 2023, but this was the first prairie dog. My...

We got home before lunchtime today. After unloading, I ran out to Dan Ekstrom’s place to pick up Coco. Dan had done some load development for his six Creedmoor XP-100, and was real pleased with the 100 yard results. Sometime ago, dan had bedded a used 7BR XP that I had picked up used. The...

While looking for a pic earlier today I cam across another one that had good memories. MOA Maximum 7mm Remington Magnum Improved (No Belt). Douglas 9T barrel. Mac's Gunworks made the aluminum forend, and a later had the barrel chopped off one inch, and had a Holland Radial Baffle brake added...
