Home Forums Hunting & Shooting AR and Tactical Rifles AR15 wins the National Highpower Rifle Title

This week, Carl Bernosky shot an AR15 based match rifle to win the National Highpower Rifle Championship at Camp Perry. In ugly conditions which ultimately shortened the 4 day match, Bernosky fired a 1787-89X with David Tubb second at 1779-86X.


While the larger framed SR25 in 260 had won in the past with Tubb driving, what's significant is that Bernosky was shooting the smaller framed AR15 in 6mm HAGAR (Harrison And Goodling Auto Rifle) http://www.6mmhagar.com/info.html. The HAGAR is based on the 30 Remington case.

The rifle was built by the John Holliger of White Oak Precision who is probably the hottest AR builder in the Highpower and Varmint world.

This was Bernosky's 8th National Title with his first coming in 1977...30 years ago!

Nice story..

Wow! Good information. Did not recall that Bernosky was still shooting.
I'm sure John was also proud.
I think that Jon D has a 6 hagar also? I'll have to snoop some more.

I'm out of state at the moment still.

That what makes it all the more interesting...Bernosky had been out of the sport for years now, and won it all in his return.

I believe that John D has a different 6mm. I haven't checked in on him in a while. Good luck with the huntin'!
