Hey Y'all!

I'm heading out to see my folks next week right outside of Phoenix and we are traveling for a few weeks to enjoy multiple states. Being located in the South (Virginia specifically) I've never really gotten the opportunity to bust primers at extreme distances behind a proper set up in a rifle. I would really appreciate the opportunity to meet with someone to send a few rounds on something accurate and hard-hitting before I come back home. It's arrogant to ask but, if I could touch base with a fellow gun-nerd to burn a little powder I would most definitely appreciate it! I hope that that someone responds and I get to thank them and shack their hand in the process.

Take care!

Desert Sharpshooters runs shoots and matches at the Ben Avery range, mostly 600 and 1000 yds, F-class and match/palma rifle. ASRPA 200-300-600yd service rifle shoots are also held there less often. The two clubs PRGC & RSSC also have a monthly 500yd shoot. (Technically 500/600 is 'medium range" in NRA/CMP events 800 to 1000 yds is Long Range.)

check their sched

you can show up and watch. I cannot guarantee you'd get invited to shoot, unless I'm there that day.

if you are in AZ on the 2nd weekend (12 sept)  https://azprecisionrifle.com/ this group shoots PRS at Cowtown west of Ben Avery. same disclaimer

enjoy your visit

Thank You!

I'm not in the same league as you folks are out there and would really enjoy seeing the science and equipment behind that sort of shooting. I will try my best to make the match and if nothing else enjoy the competition.
