Now that's a tiny group! Have heard great things about the Hammerhead bullets.
A local friend, Jim Richards, holds the Pennsylvania 1000-yard Benchrest Club record 10-shot group at 1000 yards, 2.659 inches--using what's known as a "light gun," and Jim's group is a little smaller than the heavy-gun record.

That's just a up the road from me. My son-in-law's father has started competing up there. Doing pretty well, but he's been fully retired for years and has the time and income to put into it. As close as I am, I've never been up for a match.

From Bart:
The bullet was the Hammer. A 13 ogive VLD with SIERRA JACKETS. Its a new die and I’ve only had the die for a couple of months.
BTW thanks for the kind words!
Sorry for the slow reply. Saturday we shot a double match (16 Targets) and finished pretty late. As soon as we finished I parked the truck at the hotel and WALKED to OCharlies to celebrate with some good friends! So out late and up early this morning! Coffee with Moses and Drove for 6hours in a thunderstorm to get home.
Boyd Allen is going to do a write up, but here are the details down and dirty.
I was shooting a Bat action, stock is a Derreld Jones, gun built by Mike Moses, (action popped out and stock send to Alex Wheeler to install his keel) action reglued by Billy Stevens. Lederer Barrel 8 twist HV,chambered by Dean Stroud with his version of BR Improved, Ezell Tuner, jewell trigger, March 40X power scope, Farley rest, H4895 powder, Wolf primers!
Thanks to everyone and all the kind words and congratulations!!!!
Bart

Deep Creek now belongs to International Benchrest Shooters Association.

Wolf primers.
Ok, that tells me all I need to know about them.

That's nothing, Elmer Keith did that with a handgun a 50 years ago. OK, OK maybe I need to re-read his stuff.

Impressive group, but that's not hunting. Get closer bubba. You are totally correct. the shooter should have tried to sneak up on that paper. AND he better approach from downwind too....😀
