“The 22 Creedmoor Project”

[huntnful]

Tested only charge weights this time. I shot 5 for a group at 100 yards. And then immediately after, shot 5 for a group at 607 yards, with each charge weight.

The speeds written on the 100 yard target at for all 10 shots of that charge weight.



These were the corresponding 607 yard groups.





The 40gr. group at 607.

That’ll do!

OP, thanks for taking the time to put all this info together.

Yes sir!

I want to start shooting it long and more positional for the next 100 rounds or so.

But I do want to do one more primer test series soon enough to see how it affects the ES.

No problem! I’ve enjoyed it!

Have you done a Kraft drill? Could be a good one to practice and track positional shooting

I’ve done a few of 4 circle drills? I don’t know if they’re a kraft drill though.

This was an old 6 PRC


And an old 22CM



Freehand and seated unsupported need some WORK hahaha.

It is unfortunate that Colorado doesn't allow us to hunt big game with anything under .243

22 Creedmoor is fantastic but .243, 6 Creedmoor, and 6 ARC are all really cool cartridges as well.

Yeah, it would be nice if you wanted to train with a very capable 22 cal, and then also hunt with the same gun.

But as far as just killing and shootability go, a .243 is legit.

I would only say it’s a shame on the basis that you’d need another “hunting” rifle if you had a smaller bore trainer. But it’s no big deal to just hunt with a .243 which is very shootable and has a great selection of well killing bullets.

Just confirmed that I’m good for the Arbuckle, CA NRL shoot. I will plan to shoot this 22CM one day and a 7-300 NMI (it’s not built yet) the next day.

Is it worth buying the membership to be able for the earlier sign up, in case it sells out?

No, there are spots open when it opens up to everyone. Just sign up the first day it opens up

I actually shot my first tactical style match back in like 2013 with a 7 mag with a hinged floor plate. You will definitely be turning some heads with the 7-300 lol

Thank you for the heads up

Haha my intention will only be to get better with my equipment that I hunt with and learn as much as I can. Hopefully nobody pays any mind to me

With a braked 7-300NMI at a match? Okay bud

 

[wind gypsy]

I can hear the match now. Pew. Ting. Pew. Pew. Ting. BANG. CLANG.

Hahaha I thought I was shooting like a separate time just to build skills that not many people partake in??

It’ll be a lot of banging, but not much clanging I’m sure

There always seems to be a couple guys shooting monster magnums and it is always like that. Similar 6.5 CM bangs all around and then BOOOOM, followed by "holy sh**, what is that guy shooting???"

The matches I RO'd and shot last year, including Arbuckle, the differences between all the creeds and the few 7PRCs and a 300mag was very noticeable.
