6.5 PRC, .284 Win, .300 PRC, .300 Win Mag</b></big><br />
Lapua cartridge brass sets the standard by which quality brass is measured.

<p><big><b>New Lapua Centerfire Match Ammunition</b></big><br />
Lapua produces some of the finest, most accurate factory-loaded centerfire ammunition in the world. We have shot Lapua 90gr 6mmBR ammo that produced verified groups well under quarter-MOA. that&#8217;s remarkable for factory-loaded ammo that has not been tuned for a particular rifle. For 2022, Lapua has added <strong>three new match loads</strong> that promise great consistency and accuracy. For 2022, Lapua has added <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/6-5-creedmoor-open-tip-match-target-cartridge-scenar-l88g-136gr-4316063/" target="_blank">6.5 Creedmoor 136 Grain Scenar-L</a>, <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/260-rem-open-tip-match-cartridge-scenar-l-88g-136gr-4316065/">.260 Remington 136 Grain Scenar-L</a>, and <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/300-win-mag-target-cartridge-scenar-12g-185gr-4317308/" target="_blank">.300 Winchester Magnum 185 Grain Scenar OTM</a>, to Lapua&#8217;s highly successful Scenar Match Target ammunition line.</p>

<p><big><b>New Lapua Hunting Ammunition for 2022</b></big><br />
Lapua&#8217;s ammo gurus in Finland definitely know how to build hunting rounds that are ultra-effective on game. Lapua has been crafting hunting ammo for nearly 100 years! New hunting ammo offerings include <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/223-rem-leadfree-naturalis-hunting-cartridge-32g-50gr-n315026/" target="_blank">.223 Remington 50 Grain Naturalis</a>, <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/6-5-creedmoor-mega-hunting-cartridge-soft-point-101g-156gr-4316064/" target="_blank">6.5 Creedmoor 156 Grain MEGA</a>, <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/300-win-mag-leadfree-naturalis-hunting-cartridge-11g-170gr-n317204/" target="_blank">.300 Win Mag 170 Grain Naturalis</a> (lead-free), and <a href="https://www.lapua.com/product/300-win-mag-hunting-cartridge-mega-soft-point-bullet-4317312/" target="_blank">.300 Win Mag 185 Grain MEGA</a>.

<p><big><b>SK High-Velocity Match Rimfire Ammunitions</b></big><br />
SK is owned by the same parent company as Lapua. SK now offers an extremely accurate, High-Velocity round. For 2022 SK will offer <a href="https://sk-ammunition.com/products/high-velocity-match/" target="_blank">High-Velocity Match .22 LR ammunition</a>. This new SK ammo pushes a 40gr round-nose projectile at a very fast <strong>1,263 FPS muzzle velocity</strong>. This high-velocity SK ammunition should work well for PRS/NRL22 matches and long-range rimfire events, some of which have targets out to 300 meters. The new SK High-Velocity Match ammo employs a proprietary clean-burning and high-energy propellant for reliable function in all platforms &#8212; shot after shot.</p>

<p><b>Silhouette Championship in Pennsylvania</b><br />
<img class="alignright" hspace="6" src="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/ridg21x8.jpg" alt="Ridgway PA NRA smallbore silhouette championship Erich Mietenkorte SK Lapua">For the past few days, the <a href="http://ridgwayrifleclub.com/" target="_blank">Ridgway Rifle Club</a> in Ridgway, PA has hosted the 2021 NRA Smallbore Rifle Silhouette Championship. Many of the nation&#8217;s top silhouette shooters attended this event. After a warm-up match on the 7th, the Championship match began on Sunday, August 8th and concluded on Tuesday, August 10th. Each match day featured a 40-round match with Standard Rifle and a 40-round match with Hunter Rifle. The High Power (centerfire) Silhouette Matches will continue later this week.</p>
<p><img src="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/ridg21x2.jpg" alt="Ridgway PA NRA smallbore silhouette championship Erich Mietenkorte SK Lapua"></p>
<p><big><b>Original 1950s Metal Silhouette from Mexico Donated to Ridgeway Club</b></big><br />
There was a special dedication at the match. Ace silhouette shooter Erich Mietenkorte explained: &#8220;Most people will see this picture and just see the two of us kneeling next to a piece of steel that roughly resembles an ewe. However, in reality it represents the origin of [a sport] that has enriched my life immensely. Rifle silhouette &#8230; has added to my life an extended family of some of the nicest, most humble, and selfless people I have had the privilege to get to know[.]</p>
<p><img src="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/ridg21x4.jpg" alt="Ridgway PA NRA smallbore silhouette championship Erich Mietenkorte SK Lapua"></p>
<p>This silhouette was made in the 1950s for the <a href="https://accurateshooter.net/pix/ridg21letter.jpg" target="_blank">Club De Tiro Y Caza Cananea</a> in Sonora, Mexico and is one of the original targets that was shot at a distance of 500 meters to give birth to the sport of rifle silhouette. It is only fitting that it was presented to the Ridgway Rifle Club for its ongoing efforts in promoting the sport in the United States. Special thanks to Daniel and Carlos Salazar, and Mark Pharr for honoring our sport with this special gift.

<i>Here are Team Lapua, Team Berger Bullets, and Team SK members with their awards from the match. The staff of the Ridgway Rifle Club put on an outstanding event, with High Power Silhouette to follow. Excitement is growing for the inaugural <a href="http://www.lapuamonarchcup.com" target="_blank">Lapua Monarch Cup</a> in 2022.</i></p>
<p>Congratulations to Luke Johnson on winning the 2021 NRA smallbore rifle silhouette championship. Luke won the overall title and also won the hunter gun championship. Luke&#8217;s team Lapua teammate Cathy Winstead-Severin won the standard rifle championship. Cathy Winstead-Severin finished 2nd followed closely by Laura Goetsch.

<p><img align="right" hspace="4" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/nrasilh0x270.jpg">The <a href="http://www.nrablog.com/" target="new">NRA Blog</a> ran an feature on Silhouette shooting by NRA Silhouette Program Coordinator Jonathan Leighton. Here are selections from Leighton&#8217;s story:</p>
<p><b>NRA Silhouette Shooting</b><br />
The loud crack from the bullet exiting the muzzle followed by an even louder &#8216;clang&#8217; as you watch your target fly off the railing is really a true addiction for most Silhouette shooters. There is nothing better than shooting a game where you actually get to see your target react to the bullet. In my opinion, this is truly what makes this game so much fun.</p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/nrasilh1x550.JPG"></p>
<p><img align="right" hspace="8" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/nrasilh2.jpg"><b>Metallic Silhouette &#8212; A Mexican Import</b><br />
Silhouette shooting came to this country from Mexico in the 1960s. It is speculated that sport had its origins in shooting contests between Pancho Villa’s men around 1914. After the Mexican Revolution the sport spread quickly throughout Mexico. &#8216;Siluetas Metalicas&#8217; uses steel silhouettes shaped like game animals. Chickens up front followed by rows of pigs, turkeys, and furthest away, rams. Being that &#8216;Siluetas Metalicas&#8217; was originally a Mexican sport, it is common to hear the targets referred to by their Spanish names Gallina (chicken), Javelina (pig), Guajalote (turkey) and Borrego (ram). Depending on the discipline one is shooting, these animals are set at different distances from the firing line, but always in the same order.</p>
<p><img align="right" hspace="8" src="http://accurateshooter.net/Blog/nrasilh3x270.jpg"><b>Before Steel There Was&#8230; Barbeque</b><br />
In the very beginnings of the sport, live farm animals were used as targets, and afterwards, the shooters would have a barbeque with all the livestock and/or game that was shot during the match. The first Silhouette match that used steel targets instead of livestock was conducted in 1948 in Mexico City, Mexico by Don Gonzalo Aguilar.</p>
<p>As the sport spread and gained popularity during the 1950s, shooters from the Southwestern USA started crossing the Mexican border to compete. Silhouette shooting came into the US in 1968 at the Tucson Rifle Club in Arizona. The rules have stayed pretty much the same since the sport has been shot in the US. NRA officially recognized Silhouette as a shooting discipline in 1972, and conducted its first NRA Silhouette Nationals in November of 1972.</p>
<p><b>Now There Are Multiple Disciplines</b><br />
The actual sport of Silhouette is broken into several different disciplines. High Power Rifle, Smallbore Rifle, Cowboy Lever Action Rifle, Black Powder Cartridge Rifle, Air Rifle, Air Pistol, and Hunter’s Pistol are the basic disciplines. Black Powder Cartridge Rifle also has a &#8216;Scope&#8217; class, and Hunter’s Pistol is broken into four sub-categories. Some clubs also offer Military Rifle Silhouette comps.</p>
<p><b>Where to Shoot Silhouette</b><br />
NRA-Sanctioned matches are found at gun clubs nation-wide. You can find match listings on the <a href='http://www.ssusa.org' target="_blank">Shooting Sports USA</a> website or contact the NRA Silhouette Department at (703) 267-1465.

<p>SHOT Show 2019 kicked off Tuesday, with tens of thousands of exhibitors, media members, and invitees streaming into the Sands EXPO Center in Las Vegas. This firearms industry trade show just gets bigger every year. We visited many of our favorite vendors including Capstone Precision Group (Berger, Lapua, SK, Vihtavuori), McMillan Fiberglass Stocks, Zeiss Optics, Redding Reloading, SIG Sauer, Smith &#038; Wesson, Anschutz, and Target Vision/Longshot.</p>
<p>Here are some quick highlights from Day One of SHOT Show, a little bit of everything: Rifles, pistols, ammo, reloading gear, and some notable shooters.</p>
<p><font size="2"><b>Capstone Precision Group: Berger, Lapua, SK and Vihtavuori</b></font></p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22lapua.jpg" alt="Lapua brass ammo SK bullets scenar Capstone Precision shot show 2019"></p>
<p><a href="http://www.capstonepg.com/" target="_blank">Capstone Precision Group</a> showcased new products from its four companies: Berger Bullets, Lapua, SK, and Vihtavuori. Lapua showcases cartridge brass and loaded ammo, including new 6.5 Creedmoor ammo with the ultra-consistent Scenar-L bullets. Capstone also told us to expect large quantities of brass to be arriving in the USA soon, including the high-demand 6mmBR brass.</p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22berger.jpg" alt="Berger bullets ELR solid match projectiles Capstone Precision shot show 2019"></p>
<p>Berger will release new loaded ammo in Lapua brass. Options will include 6mm Creedmoor, which should be popular with the PRS crowd. In addition, Berger will offer an impressive new line of solid projectiles. These ultra-high-BC ELF Match Solids have optimal shapes to stay supersonic at longer ranges. They are an impressive option for the Extreme Long Range game.</p>
<p><font size="2"><b>McMillan &#8212; 6012-Yard Shot with ELR Rifle</b></font></p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22elr1.jpg" alt="McMillan Beast paul phillips elr rifle 6012 yard shot"></p>
<p>At the <a href="https://mcmillanusa.com" target="_blank">McMillan booth</a>, members of the Global Precision Group (GPG) Team showcased an impressive .416 Barrett ELR rifle. Team leader Paul Phillips explained how the team managed (on the 22nd shot) to hit a 48&#8243;x32&#8243; target at the incredible distance of <strong>6012 yards</strong>. Our friend Derek Rodgers, reigning F-TR World Champion, told us that this shows how the ELR sport has evolved. The rifle features a McMillan ELR Beast stock with a Bartlein Barrel on a massive BAT 50 action.The .416 Barrett rounds were loaded with 550 grain Cutting Edge bullets.</p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22elr2.jpg" alt="McMillan Beast paul phillips elr rifle 6012 yard shot"></p>
<p>A Tacom Charlie/Delta TARAC prism system was fitted in front of the Nightforce scope, allowing the team to put over 625 MOA of elevation on the shot while still being able to see the target. The ballistics numbers for this 6012-yard shot are pretty mind-boggling: 625 MOA of elevation was required, and the bullet was in the air for 17.1 seconds!</p>
<p><font size="2"><b>New Products from LongShot Target Cameras (aka TargetVision)</b></font></p>
<p><a href="https://www.longshotcameras.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22longshot.jpg" alt="TargetVision longshot camera system clay rhoden wife video cam"></a></p>
<p>Our first stop at the show was at the LongShot Target Cameras booth. Here we met with company founder, Clay Rhoden, the bright young man who has created the best-performing wireless target cameras on the market. Most folks know Rhoden&#8217;s company as TargetVision, but Clay said they are re-branding as LONGSHOT Target Cameras, to help emphasize the extreme range capabilities of his latest systems (the top tier Longshot cameras can operate out to one mile and beyond). Clay showed us two new products, the latest target camera (with easy-to remove battery pack), and a special camera that will transmit video from a spotting scope to your mobile devices. See the latest products at <a href="https://www.longshotcameras.com/" target="_blank">www.longshotcameras.com</a>.</p>
<p><font size="2"><b>Light-Weight Camo Hunting Rifles from Weatherby</b></font></p>
<p><a href="http://weatherby.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22wby.jpg" alt="Weatherby Mark V ultra lightweight rifle camouflage Cerakote Camo"></a></p>
<p>Hunters can spend hundreds of dollars on the latest camouflaged clothing in order to blend in to their environment, so why do gun makers continue to produce shiny hunting rifles? Well, this is one thing Weatherby has gotten right with the latest <a href="http://weatherby.com/" target="_blank">Weatherby Mark V</a> ultra lightweight rifles. The rifle has the option of a rugged, matte Cerakote finish on action, bolt, and barrel, effectively eliminating glare. And did I mention it’s light weight? The full rifle weights a mere 5.75 pounds for non-magnum calibers. Weatherby guarantees sub-MOA accuracy with factory ammunition out of the box. Add a decent lightweight scope and this rifle is ready for a long backcountry hunt.</p>
<p><font size="2"><b>Hot New Sub-Compacts from SIG Sauer, Kimber, Walther</b></font></p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22ccw.jpg" alt="Kimber Evo Walther CCP SIG P365shot show 2019"></p>
<p>For shooters who carry concealed or simply prefer a more compact pistol, three new handguns really stood out at shot show 2019: the SIG Sauer P365, Walther CCP M2, and the Kimber EVO. All three guns had a similar weight and feel at roughly 1” width, 6” length, and 1 lb when empty. The P365 has an advantage with a 10 + 1 round capacity, compared to the 7/8 of the EVO and CCP M2, but the CCP M2 is more competitively priced with an MSRP starting at $469. Retail for the P365 starts at $599 and the Kimber a surprising $925. Expect to see these guns in stores between spring and summer of 2019.</p>
<p><font size="2"><b>Smith &#038; Wesson &#8212; Handguns Galore and New T/C Performance Center LRR</b></font></p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22lrr.jpg" alt="Smith Wesson T/C LRR long range rifle revolver magnum shot show 2019"></p>
<p>Smith &#038; Wesson is not just a handgun company. It markets rifles under its own brand name as well as via its Thompson Center Arms (T/C) division. At SHOT Show 2019 we saw the <a href="https://www.tcarms.com/firearms/bolt-action-rifles/performance-center-t-c-lrr/performance-center-t-c-lrr" target="_blank">T/C Performance Center LRR</a> (Long Range Rifle). With a $1211.00 MSRP, this offers great &#8220;bang for the buck&#8221; for shooters competing in PRS production division. These rigs feature a modular aluminum chassis, 24&#8243; barrel, and adjustable cheekpiece. Available chamberings include .243 Win, 6.5 Creedmoor, and .308 Win. And of course S&#038;W continues to make great wheelguns, include some very BIG magnum revolvers:</p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22smith2.jpg" alt="Smith Wesson T/C revolver magnum shot show 2019"></p>
<p><font size="2"><b>At the Anschutz Booth with Company President, Jochen Anschutz</b></font></p>
<p><img src="http://accurateshooter.net/pix/shot22anschutz.jpg" alt="anschutz rimfire .22 LR fortner match rifles shot show 2019"></p>
<p>The German company Anschutz remains a world leader in rimfire rifles. The company&#8217;s match rifles have captured countless Gold Medals in Olympic target shooting and biathlong competition. Here company President Jochen Anschutz (left) shows the latest Biathlon rifle, featuring the impressive Fornter straight-pull action. With Jochen is Steven Bolter, North America Custom Shop Director. We were pleased to hear that Anschutz will be offering a new line of 17 HM2 (Mach2) rifles soon. That is an effective varmint round that&#8217;s considerable less expensive than 17 HMR.</p>

<p>For each ammo type, SSUSA lists the bullet weight, velocity (FPS), and average of two, 5-shot groups at fifty yards. The most accurate ammo was Lapua Center-X LRN, with a 0.37&#8243; average 50-yard group size. Second best was Lapua X-ACT LRN at 0.42&#8243;. Ammo was tested from a bench with a Cooper Model 57-M rifle fitted with 3-9x33mm Leupold VX-2 scope. The ammo offerings were grouped into three categories: (1) Varmints/Small Game; (2) Target; and (3) Plinking. (See ammo tables below.)</p>

<p>Different types of .22 LR (Long Rifle) rimfire ammo have different applications. Subsonic ammo, typically, is best for 25m to 50m target work with precision rimfire rigs. Hi-Velocity .22 LR ammo provides a flatter trajectory for longer ranges. SSUSA explains: &#8220;The array of .22 LR loads&#8230; turns a person&#8217;s head every which way. Subsonic target loads are the key to decisive accuracy on targets, while hyper-velocity cartridges provide striking bullet expansion on small varmints. In between, standard and high-velocity .22 LRs are loadrf with a variety of bullet weights and styles for everything from small-game hunting to plinking[.]&#8221; <a href="http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/nra/ssusa_201810/index.php#/32" target="-blank">READ Full SSUSA .22 LR Rimfire Ammo Story</a>.</p>
