<p>Keith Glasscock is one of America&#8217;s greatest F-Class shooters and one of highly respected wind coach. A High Master, Keith finished second overall at the 2021 NRA F-Class Long Range Championship in F-Open division. He also finished second at the 2020 F-Open Nationals, and second at the 2019 F-Open Nationals. His consistency is unrivaled, which means he definitely knows the secrets of competition shooting and loading ultra-accurate ammo. In recent seasons, Keith has started PRS/NRL competition, bringing his impressive shooting skills to those popular tactical disciplines.</p>
<p><img class="alignright" hspace="10" 
 src="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/kgsatvid24x1.jpg" alt="Winning in Wind Keith Glasscock video showcase reloading barrel ES SD Accuracy">Keith has a great <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@winninginthewind/videos" target="_blank">YouTube Channel</a> with multiple new video releases every month. On Keith&#8217;s <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@winninginthewind/videos" target="_blank">Winning in the Wind channel</a>, Keith offers 265+ informative videos on a wide range of topics including wind reading, reloading, component selection, load development, and training.</p>
<p>For today&#8217;s Saturday Video Showcase, we offer nine of our favorite Keith Glasscock videos. These cover many key topics &#8212; ballistics, barrel care, gunsmithing, bullet sorting, reloading, maintenance and more. Each video has important points that can benefit any competitive rifle shooter, whether you shoot in local 100-yard fun matches or compete at the National Level in F-Class, LR Benchrest, Palma, High Power, or PRS/NRL.</p>
<h2>Top 10 Methods to Improve Your Shooting Accuracy</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/o-n30R5mCGQ?si=dj-GwluZHS_BJ2tG" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>To shoot top scores, you need great skills and great hardware. This video covers 10 things that can improve accuracy, starting with the most important. The #1 item, notes Keith, is rifle shooting skill &#8212; you need to be able to hold on target properly and run the rifle consistently shot after shot. The second most important thing is an accurate rifle &#8212; you need a rifle with an excellent barrel, quality components, and top-tier inherent accuracy. Third, you need very accurate ammo, and this means you need to perfect your reloading skills. You need precise powder measurement and good, consistent bullet seating. Fourth in the list is related to ammo &#8212; you need the ability to do effective load development to pick the best load for your particular barrel. Number 5 is the &#8220;right bullet&#8221;. You need a high-quality, ultra-consistent bullet that is a good match for your particular barrel and discipline. Watch the video for the other five items.</p>
<h2>Wind Direction vs. Wind Speed &#8212; Which is More Important</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/vvnuvCSfmrA" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Most shooters find wind reading somewhat intimidating. That is understandable. The wind can change constantly during a match, with variations in both wind velocity and angles. Sometimes you think you have a cycle figured out, but then there can be an unexpected lull. Or you may start a string in what you think is a stable condition, but then a surprise shift changes everything. In addition, wind flows can be influenced by terrain features, such as berms, which have varying effects depending on wind angle (e.g. a tailwind hitting a berm will act differently than a 90-deg crosswind). That is why a good wind reader needs to identify both the wind speed AND the wind angle. In this video, Keith explains when to focus primarily on direction and when to pay most attention to velocity. With headwinds and tailwinds, Keith notes, you should monitor angle changes carefully. With crosswinds, speed is the key variable to watch.</p>
<p><big><b><font size="3" color="red">KEY Points to Remember</font><br />
&#8212; Small changes in wind direction changes alter POI drastically at long range<br />
&#8212; During head or tailwinds, focus on wind direction<br />
&#8212; During crosswinds, focus more on wind speed<br />
&#8212; The wind is cyclic &#8212; always be aware of the pattern</b></big></p>
<h2>Reloading for PRS/NRL vs. F-Class</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/2cRyLR_af2w?si=IhAc20HUqEK0Szyv" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Keith Glasscock is one of the very few PRS/NRL competitors who has shot F-Class at the very highest level, finishing second three times in F-Class National Championships. PRS/NRL and F-Class are very different disciplines with different challenges. F-Class is shot prone with time between shots and target distances from 600 to 1000 yards. In PRS/NRL competition, you are shooting from multiple positions, at many distances from 100 yards on out, with fast follow-up shoots. For F-Open, you want an extremely accurate load that can deliver sub-quarter MOA groups at 200 yards. For PRS/NRL you don&#8217;t necessarily need that level of accuracy (though it helps). But you also need a load that is very consistent, has relatively low recoil, but can also provide sufficient impact energy to clearly show a hit on distant steel. In this video, Keith Glasscock explains his reloading objectives for the two disciplines. </p>
<p><img src="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/kgvid24x4.jpg" alt="keith glasscock prs/nrl f-class"></p>
<h2>How to Find (and Fine-Tune) Seating Depth</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5Oj9Os8rT8M" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>This is Keith&#8217;s most popular video, with 295,000 views on YouTube. Keith definitely knows how to maximize accuracy by finding the optimal seating depth for each particular barrel. He is achieving groups in the high Ones for three shots. That would be good for a short-range benchrest cartridge, but Keith is achieving that with a .284 Winchester which has much more recoil. If you shoot F-TR or F-Open or even PRS, you should watch this video.</p>
<h2>How to Remove Carbon Build-Up in Barrels</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/yIYNG2QlpOE?si=Rv71fZFtsEHL1fTY" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Hard carbon is the bane of rifle shooters. Hard carbon build-up in the barrel can adversely affect accuracy, and in extreme cases, can lead to increased pressure. If possible, you should clean your barrel(s) soon after a match (or shooting session) before the carbon fully hardens. We&#8217;ve used Wipe-Out Foam right after a match (with an hour soak time) and that dramatically reduced the amount of brushing required. In this video Keith Glasscock explains the negatives of hard carbon in your barrel, and he discusses how to diagnose the problem and how to remove the carbon build-up efficiently.</p>
<h2>Key Methods for Precision Load Development</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/SWg4zdvTxn8?si=TGp7mVHAORbvMFqJ" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Keith starts this video with this adage: &#8220;The best do the basics better.&#8221; He then explains how that applies to load development and achieving great accuracy. Your need to start with high-quality components then do every step of the reloading process &#8212; case prep, powder mesauring, bullet seating with precision. Keith then goes through his recommended process for developing an accurate load that will sustain accuracy throughout a match.</p>
<h2>Recommended Barrel Break-In Methods</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tOUK_zHt4hQ?si=g4JqLqspJdgng3by" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Barrel break-in is a controversial subject. With premium finish-lapped barrels from top manufacturers, some ace F-Class shooters get away with hardly no break-in &#8212; just shoot for score right from the get-go. On high-quality custom barrels, we&#8217;ve had success with minimalistic break-in with a few wet patches ever 3 rounds for the first 20 rounds. However, with relatively rough factory barrels, you may get better long-term results with a systematic break-in process, even using specialized products on your patches. In this video Keith Glasscock explains break-in procedures he&#8217;s found to work for various barrel types and applications.</p>
<h2>What Counts More &#8212; ES or SD?</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/90jppXqi3Io?si=s4Ido4Zcv2HvdCSW" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>In general, we have gotten the best match results with loads showing an Extreme Spread (ES) under 13 FPS and an extremely low Standard Deviation (SD). We know that F-Class and ELR shooters competing at 1000 yards and beyond definitely want an extremely low ES to minimize vertical dispersion at long range. That said, some short-range Benchrest competitors look at group size more than ES/SD. In this video, Keith Glasscock talks about the reloading process and methods for lowering ES and SD. Proper brass prep is important, as is precise powder measuring. And long range shooters may want to test 3 or 4 different powder types to find the one that offers the best combination of accuracy and low ES/SD. </p>
<h2>Sorting Bullets &#8212; Various Methods Compared</h2>
<p><iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/T2KQQ8A5P30?si=qE5gvqlNiYEgK5eJ" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Should you sort your bullets? If so, should you sort by <strong>weight, OAL, base-to-ogive, or max diameter?</strong> Which factor? Well the answer is &#8220;it depends&#8221;. You need to carefully examine a couple dozen bullets from each batch to see how consistent they are. We had some Lapua bullets that were ultra-consistent with 97 out of 100 within .0015&#8243; base to ogive length. We used those bullets <em>unsorted</em> to set a local range record at 600 yards. On the other hand if you find significant differences in weights, diameters, or bearing surface lengths, you probably should sort. One tip &#8212; many shooters do not consider the width difference in bullets. We have seen 6mm bullet diameters vary from 0.2428&#8243; to 0.2436&#8243;. We have one 3-groove 6BR barrel that likes the skinny bullets and another 6-groove barrel that definitely prefers the fatter bullets.</p>

<p><img class="alignright" hspace="6" border="1" width="175" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/creedcart01.jpg" alt="Creedmoor Sports Range Cart CRC-1">High Power and F-Class shooters have a ton of gear they need to carry out to the firing lines. To do the hauling, you can certainly purchase a factory-made, purpose-built cart that folds up and has all the bells and whistles. The <a href="http://www.creedmoorsports.com/product/CREEDMOOR-RANGE-CART/Range-Carts" target="_blank">Creedmoor Sports CRC-1</a> (photo right) is a <strong>proven, quality product</strong> that works great. You&#8217;ll find these used by top shooters at Camp Perry. But the Creedmoor CRC-1 cart costs $499.95.</p>
<p>For a fraction of that price ($74.99), plus a few dollars more for do-it-yourself enhancements, you can have a heavy-duty cart that will haul all your gear just fine, though it doesn&#8217;t fold up. In the top photo is a <a href="https://www.harborfreight.com/welding-cylinder-cart-70869.html" target="_blank">Harbor Freight Welding Cart</a> we saw at the Berger Southwest Nationals. This rig is carrying a rifle in hard gun case, bipod, folding chair, shooting mat, tripod, spotting scope, rear sand-bag, and ammo box &#8212; that&#8217;s a lot of gear!</p>
<p><center><a href="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/cart03big.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" class="alignright" hspace="20" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/cart03.jpg" alt="Welding Cart Range Cart"></a><a href="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/cart02big.jpg" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/cart02.jpg" alt="Welding Cart Range Cart"></a></center></p>
<p>Check out the <a href="https://www.harborfreight.com/welding-cylinder-cart-70869.html" target="_blank">Harbor Freight Welding Cart</a>, item #70869. This cart is <strong>ON SALE now for just $74.99</strong>. The Chicago Electric Welding Cylinder Cart (SKU 70869) has an overall height of 49 inches, a length of 28 inches, and a width of 17-3/4 inches. NOTE the wheels for the current version are smaller diameter than shown in the photos above. The current cart has metal wheels with solid rubber (non-inflated) tires.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.harborfreight.com/welding-cylinder-cart-70869.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/redcart26x1.jpg" "Harbor Freight Welding Cart"></a></p>
<p>As sold, the <a href="https://www.harborfreight.com/welding-cylinder-cart-70869.html" target="_blank">Harbor Freight Welding Cart</a> can benefit from upgrades for range use. But with a few bungee cords (and some creativity), the cart can be adapted pretty easily to hauling your gun gear. If you want to enhance the basic cart, it&#8217;s easy to add plastic side-panels on the bottom unit, and fit a barrel-holding system on the cross-tube. This ensures rifles and gear won&#8217;t flop forward. (A small piece of wood under the bottom panel provides a bit of extra lift that will keep the bottom plate out of the dirt and gravel.)</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img width="600" src="https://accurateshooter.net/Blog/ocab01.jpg" alt="Sako Extractor Remington bolt"></p>
<p>Jonathan Ocab, a High Power shooter from California, had gunsmith <a href="https://doantrevor.com/" target=_blank">Doan Trevor</a> install a Sako-style extractor in the Rem 700 bolt in Ocab&#8217;s 6mmBR Eliseo R5 tubegun. Jonathan produced an excellent video showing how the Sako extractor improves the ejection of the short, fat 6mmBR cartridges in his rifle. Jonathan&#8217;s video demonstrates 6mmBR case ejection with an unmodified Rem 700 factory bolt versus a factory bolt fitted with a Sako-style extractor.</p>
<p><iframe width="600" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7g-jgOtPLjM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Johnathan explains: &#8220;Note how even when slowly operating the bolt, the bolt with the Sako extractor easily &#8216;kicks&#8217; out the brass on ejection with minimal chance of operator error resulting in a failure to extract. While the unmodified bolt has issues ejecting brass on slow operation, it will eject if the operator pulls the bolt back quickly (fast and with some force).</p>
<p>While a Sako-style extractor isn&#8217;t an absolute necessity, this video shows the definite improvement this modification provides. For short cartridges like the 6mmBR, this is very useful. This modification is highly recommended for competition shooters, especially High Power competitors who seek improved function in rapid-fire stages. This modification is fairly inexpensive and any competent gunsmith should be able to perform the work (usually under $100 with parts and labor).&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>EDITOR&#8217;s NOTE: In his video, Jonathan deliberately worked the unmodified Remington bolt slowly to show how the standard Rem extractor can struggle with short fat cases like the 6mmBR. In fact, when you work a standard, unmodified bolt more quickly, the extraction can be much more positive. Cycling the bolt with more &#8220;snap&#8221; provides more energy to eject the cases. We have run an R5 Tubegun chambered in 6mmBR with an unmodified Rem 700 bolt (no SAKO extractor), and the extraction was reliable, provided the bolt was worked quickly.</p></blockquote>

<p><img class="alignright" hspace="6" src="https://accurateshooter.net/Blog/necksorttool01.jpg" alt="Case Neck thickness sorting gauge Sinclair accurateshooter.com">He who dies with the most toys wins &#8212; right? Well Sinclair has another interesting gadget you can add to your reloading bench. The Sinclair <a href="https://alnk.to/faEGhV9" target="_blank">Case Neck Sorting Tool</a> lets you quickly sort brass by neck-wall thickness. For those who shoot &#8220;no-turn&#8221; brass, this can improve neck-tension consistency. Large variances in neck-wall thickness can cause inconsistent neck &#8220;grip&#8221; on the bullet. Generally, we&#8217;ve found that more consistent neck tension will lower ES and (usually) improve accuracy. We know some guys who shoot no-turn 6mmBR brass in competition with considerable success &#8212; but their secret is pre-sorting their brass by neck-wall thickness. Cases that are out-of-spec are set aside for sighters (or are later skim-turned).</p>

<iframe width="600" height="340" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YMREA34-vD0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p><b>How the Case Neck Sorting Tool Works</b><br />
Here&#8217;s how the Sinclair tool works. Cases are rotated under an indicator tip while they are supported on a case-neck pilot and a support pin through the flash hole. The unit has a nice, wide base and low profile so it is stable in use. The tool works for .22 through .45 caliber cases and can be used on .17- and .20-caliber cases with the optional carbide alignment rod. The MIC-4 pin fits both .060 (PPC size) and .080 (standard size) flash holes. Sinclair&#8217;s <a href="https://alnk.to/8tMphPQ" target="_blank">Case Neck Sorting Tool</a> can be ordered with or without a dial indicator. The basic unit without dial indicator (item <a href="https://alnk.to/faEGhV9" target="_blank">item 749006612</a>) is priced at $59.99. With this standard tool you can use your own dial indicator with standard specifications. You can also buy the tool complete with dial indicator (item <a href="https://alnk.to/6bY2gke" target="_blank">749007129</a>) for $89.99. IMPORTANT: This sorting tool requires caliber-specific <strong>Case Neck Pilots</strong> which must be ordered separately.</p>
<p>Editor&#8217;s Comment: <em>The purpose of this Sinclair tool is rapid, high-quantity sorting of cartridge brass to ascertain significant case-neck-wall thickness variations. Consider this a rapid culling/sorting tool. If you are turning your necks, you will still need a quality <a href="https://alnk.to/60XNysL" target="_blank">ball micrometer</a> tool to measure neck-wall thickness (to .0005) before and after neck-turning operations.</em></p>

<i>We have used NO-LEAD Cleaner in rimfire benchrest rifles similar to this modified Suhl 150-1. It helped restore accuracy with minimal brushing.</i></p>
<p><img class="alignright" src="https://accurateshooter.net/Blog/nolead01.gif" alt="NO-lead brushless lead remover Wipe-out Sharp Shoot-r" hspace="10">Made by the same smart folks that created Wipe-Out™, and Carb-Out™, <a href="https://sharpshootr.com/no-lead/" target="_blank">NO-LEAD Brushless Lead Remover™</a> really works. Honest. If you are an active rimfire shooter, or if you shoot cast lead-alloy bullets in centerfire rifles and pistols, you should try this product. We now use NO-LEAD in our rimfire benchrest rifles, and in some centerfire guns that receive a steady diet of soft-alloy cast bullets (90%+ lead). (With rimfire guns, you don&#8217;t need to use NO-LEAD very often &#8212; maybe every 300-400 rounds unless you have a real fouler of a barrel.)</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve got stubborn lead fouling in a rimfire barrel, or on a pistol&#8217;s muzzle brake/compensator, you should definitely give this stuff a try. We don&#8217;t know how but it does soften lead deposits. The manufacturer says you don&#8217;t need brushes, but we found that a bit of brushing (after NO-LEAD application) can help remove more serious lead build-up.</p>
<p>Yes we were surprised to find a lead remover that <em>really works</em>. We tried a half-dozen other lead &#8220;cleaners&#8221; that promised to dissolve lead and most of them, we discovered, are nearly useless. There&#8217;s a reason for that, as the lead alloys used in bullets don&#8217;t react to typical petrochemical-based solvents. It took the Wipe-Out chemists over five years to perfect this <strong>water-based solution</strong> that really does dissolve lead.</p>
<p><big><strong>NO-LEAD Cleaning Procedure &#8212; Read Carefully</strong></big><br />
<a href="https://sharpshootr.com/no-lead/" target="_blank">NO-LEAD Lead Remover</a> is a clear, red gel that is easy to apply. Just swab it in your bore (or on muzzle brakes) with wet patches or bore mop and let it sit for a few minutes. (The manufacturer says you can leave the NO-LEAD for up to 20 minutes, but that long of a dwell time does not seem necessary with our rimfire barrels.) When it contacts lead it will start to foam and you&#8217;ll see that the NO-LEAD solvent turns a pastel pink when it dissolves lead. The pink comes from the formation of lead oxide. After the recommended dwell time, simply patch out the dissolved lead deposits (you can also use a nylon brush for stubborn lead build-up).</p>
<p>NOTE: After cleaning, it is very important that you <font color="#cc0000"><strong>get all the NO-LEAD out of your barrel, and neutralize it</strong></font>. We recommend following the application of NO-Lead with Wipe-out or Patch-Out to neutralize the NO-LEAD, clear the bore, and remove residual carbon and copper fouling. If you don&#8217;t have Wipe-Out or Patch-out, flush the barrel thoroughly with Rubbing Alcohol or even a solution of Dawn dish detergent &#8212; then re-oil the bore.</p>
<p><big><strong>Be Sure to Neutralize NO-LEAD After Use</strong></big><br />
Remember that N0-LEAD is a strong, <strong>slightly acidic chemical that needs to be neutralized</strong> after use. If you leave it on a nice, blued barrel for too long, it can harm the bluing. <strong>NO-LEAD will remove all the surface oils from the barrel bore</strong>. For this reason it is recommended that you neutralize NO-LEAD with Wipe-Out, or Patch-Out, which both contain effective corrosion inhibitors. If you don&#8217;t have those products, once you&#8217;ve flushed the NO-LEAD with something like rubbing alcohol, then follow with a gun oil. Caution: A petroleum-based gun oil will NOT, by itself, neutralize NO-LEAD. You need to neutralize first, then apply the corrosion inhibitor (or do it all in one step with Wipe-Out or Patch-Out).</p>
<p><img class="alignright" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/fieldtestedx180.gif" hspace="6" align="right" /><strong>Where to Buy NO-LEAD Lead Remover</strong><br />
NO-LEAD Lead Remover costs $19.50 for an 8 oz. squeeze bottle with a flip-top spout. This product is sold directly by Sharp Shoot-R Precision Products through <a href="http://www.sharpshootr.com/no-lead.htm" target="_blank">Sharpshootr.com</a>, or you can purchase NO-LEAD through many other online vendors. For more information, send an email via the <a href="http://www.sharpshootr.com/contact-us/" target="_blank">Sharp Shoot-R Contact Form</a> or or contact SharpShoot-R at (785) 883-4444.

<a href="https://amzn.to/2Tx3xGx" target="_blank">Splatterburst 1&#8243; circles</a>, 62 per sheet, 10-pk $9.99. These can be pasted on other paper backers.</a></p>
<p>We&#8217;ve all seen conventional splatter targets with a single large black bullseye. When a shot hits the target, a halo (usually neon yellow) appears around the bullet hole. This makes it easier to see your shot placements indoors, or at long range outdoors. Today we feature a variety of other targets that also offer the cool halo/splatter effect. We&#8217;ve found grids, multiple bull targets, sheets with 62 one-inch circle pasters, handgun training targets, and even white background splatter targets (that produce black halos). Try out some of these targets for fun (kids love plinking with splatter targets).</p>

<i>This would be an amazing group at 100 yards. But this 5-shot bughole was shot at TWO HUNDRED yards in competition by Bart Sauter of <a href="http://bartsbullets.weebly.com/" target="_blank">Bart&#8217;s Custom Bullets</a>. And he did it with a borrowed barrel!</i></p>
<p><big>Be amazed. This <strong>five-shot group was shot at 200 yards</strong> in competition by bullet-maker Bart Sauter. Bart shot this astounding group with his 10.5-lb Light Varmint benchrest rifle at a East-West Match in St. Louis, Missouri. Had Bart been shooting an IBS match, this would have been a new IBS World Record, beating the .091&#8243; by David Farrar in 2006. This .088&#8243; group missed the NBRSA 200-yard 5-shot group record by a whisker &#8212; .013&#8243; (thirteen thousandths). The listed NBRSA LV 200-yard <a href="https://www.nbrsa.org/short-range-group-world-records/" target="_blank">Group record is 0.075&#8243;</a> shot by Johnnie Stewart in 2009.</big></p>
<p>New record or not, this is one remarkably impressive group, shot by one very talented shooter and bullet-maker. Bart tells us he initially &#8220;held center&#8221; for the first three shots in the group. Then, watching his wind flags he noticed slight increase in the left-to-right condition, so he held 0.200&#8243; to the left on shot 4 and it worked. Before shot 5, Bart detected another slight change, so he held 0.300&#8243; left for the fifth and final shot. He explained: &#8220;If I had not held off for those last two shots, this group would have been about a flat four (0.400&#8243;).&#8221; Well done Bart!</p>
<blockquote><p><big>&#8220;First three &#8230; bang bang bang &#8230; all went in one hole. Then I held left on shot 4 and it worked. On the last shot I held a little more, got lucky and it went in.&#8221; &#8212; Bart Sauter</big></p></blockquote>
<p>In our <a href="http://forum.accurateshooter.com/threads/how's-this-for-a-group.3982033/" target="_blank">Shooter&#8217;s Forum</a>, Bart posted &#8220;This is my personal best-ever 5-shot group at 200 yards. I knew it was small, but was shocked to see it was a Zero! This will be a range record and record for the East/West match. Last group of the day! A nice way to end the match!&#8221;</p>
<p><center><img src="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/bart8806.jpg" alt="Bart Sauter Bart's Bullets .088 6PPC one-hole group 200 yards amazing"></center></p>
<p><i>Here is the 6PPC LV rifle that shot the .088&#8243; group. Yes that&#8217;s a concrete shooting bench inside a pretty nice cabin with hunting trophies on the walls. Bart explained: &#8220;We reload and shoot out of the Monkey Hut, especially during the winter. Most of the time we shoot outside at 100/200 from a a three-bench range.</i></p>
<p><b>Amazing Group Shot with Borrowed Krieger Barrel!</b><br />
There&#8217;s a very interesting side-note to this story. You see Bart doesn&#8217;t even own the <a href="https://kriegerbarrels.com/" target="_blank">Krieger barrel</a> that delivered this amazing .088&#8243; 200-yard group. That&#8217;s right this superb barrel was a &#8220;loaner&#8221; &#8212; borrowed from Bart&#8217;s buddy Gary Sullivan. [Editor: Oh that we could all be so lucky with borrowed components.] With Sullivan&#8217;s blessing, Bart has since loaned the barrel yet again to ace Billy Stevens, who will be using it at the <a href="https://rosebudsilhouetteandbenchrestclub.wildapricot.org/15th-WBC-competitor-page" target="_blank">World Benchrest Championship</a> in Canada, July 14-21, 2019.</p>

<p>Here is Bart&#8217;s target with a bullet removed. Bart was shooting his own 6mm 68gr Avenger bullets, a double-radius ogive design. The Avengers were seated about .004&#8243; away from the lands: &#8220;I tried going into the lands and that didn&#8217;t seem to work, then I backed it off four thousandths [from contact] and the rifle liked that.&#8221; Bart drove those 68gr Avengers with a stout load of <a href="http://www.accuratepowder.com/products/rifle/?view=23&#038;product=LT30" target="_blank">Accurate LT30 powder</a> running 3407 FPS.</i></p>

<blockquote><p><strong>Bart&#8217;s Comments on His Components and Accessories</strong></p>
<p>OPTICS &#8212; Bart likes his new <a href="http://www.valdada.com/40x45-30mm-sf-benchrest-competition-scope/" target="_blank">40x45mm IOR-Valdada Benchrest Scope</a>. He says that, so far, it has proved very reliable and holds zero exceptionally well. This new design features a worm drive side-focus, oversized ocular with true +/- diopter adjustment, long eye relief, and fast-focusing reticle. The 40X Valdada also boasts superb HD &#8220;double-compressed&#8221; Schott glass from Germany.</p>
<p>TUNER &#8212; Bart says the <a href="https://bulletcentral.com/product/bukys-tsi-barrel-tuner/" target="_blank">Bukys TSI Tuner</a> definitely helps. He notes that once he finds the &#8220;sweet spot&#8221; for his barrel he can normally leave it alone: &#8220;With that type of tuner, I have to be in a very dire straight to move it. Normally I will set it for the lifetime of the barrel.&#8221;</p>
<p>REAR BAG &#8212; Bart&#8217;s rear bag is an unusual Edgewood with softer gray leather. He says this was a special order by <a href="https://www.brunoshooters.com/" target="_blank">Bruno Shooters Supply</a>. Bart likes how the rear bag works with his carbon-stocked 10.5-lb rifle: &#8220;With PPCs we &#8216;ride on the ears&#8217; &#8212; this older bag just seems to work really well for that style.&#8221;</p>
<p>SUPER FEET &#8212; Bart told us he uses Benchsource Super Feet for his front rest: &#8220;The bench tops at St Louis are very slick. Before I set up I’ll use a spray bottle with water and wet the bench where the Super feet and rear bag will go. This really helps to keep things from sliding around!&#8221;</p></blockquote>
