Looking to get into long range

[peterhodges]

Shortrange is 0-200yds.
Midrange is 200yds to 600yds.
600-1000yds is longrange.
Beyond 1000yds is extended long range.

Sweet, that makes me a long range shooter with an AK!

For the OP: these days you can buy a reasonably priced off the shelf rifle and ammo that will shoot sub-moa. For instance the Bergara HMR Pro or Steyr Pro THB.

There is also Sako TRG/Tikka t3

Longrange technically starts at 800 because there are no NRA standard target distances between 601 and 799.
600 is the END of midrange.
Longrange is 800-1000.
Since there are no coverage of 600-800, I lump them into longrange.
Others may lump them in to midrange.

this could be a killer in gas gun competition.

If you want to drive and camp out, we'll be shooting all weekend in Cuyama.

We'll be shooting a 600 yard match Saturday morning, a 1,000 yard match on Saturday afternoon and a Palma 800, 900 & 1,000 yard match on Sunday morning.

The only problem is, Pala is the closest range to me and it only stretches out past 800.

Santa Margarita Gun Club On MCB Camp Pendleton has monthly NRA Longrange matches (800-1K). Sign up as an "observer" and ask all the questions you want.

Plenty of full custom and modified factory rifles to check out.

A little short notice but theres an NRL Borderwars match tomorrow at Pala if you want to come out I will have a Bighorn in an MPA chassis and you are welcome to get behind it. I'll also have a curtis custom in an MDT ACC you can get behind after the match during rec shooting if you want. There will be a ton of nice rifles there in probably just about every configuration you can think of.

What do you think of the Curtis Custom?

What do you think of the Curtis Custom?

I've been really happy with mine. It's crazy smooth and very fast. Between the Bighorn and Curtis, the Curtis gets the nod from me in almost every aspect. Bolt lift is a tiny bit heavier if you want to sit there comparing them side by side, but when running the bolt in a match setting, its negligible and completely outshined by the fact that nearly everything else about the action runs better. That's not to say that there is anything wrong with the Bighorn, both are great actions. But if I had to pick one, I'd pick the Curtis.

I've not used a Terminus action but yes Joel did design multiple curtis actions and owns the patents (which is why the Terminus actions are practically the same as Curtis, with a few tweaks and improvements). I have run 6 creedmoor and now running 6BRA through my Curtis and I have not experienced any feeding issues, but I think more options are generally a good thing.

Nice. The Axiom I assume?
