K&M Kahles PRS Match
Shot in the 2018 Kahles PRS match. First day I was 151 out of about 290 shooters. Second day I did not do as well, and ended up in 179 place. When my barrel got hot after firing about six shots, it really opened up at ranges in excess of 600 yards. Got home and measured to the lands. The throat had lengthened out .030. Had. It checked it real close the last six hundred rounds. Probably only cost me about a dozen hits, but 12 is a lot in this game. It was also a tad hot. Would have liked to been in the top 50%, but I learned a good deal. For whatever reason the photographer snapped a lot of pictures of me, and my gear. Here are a few pics.

The ladies do love a man who is always prepared...
151out of 290 didn't sound too bad to me. How many rounds to give you that amount of movement in the throat? You were shooting your 6.5Cred?

Re: K&M Kahles PRS Match
I kinda lost track. It is a 6xc. I checked it a lot the first 1000 rounds, but not much the last 600-700. Got roughly 1700 rounds through it now.

Re: K&M Kahles PRS Match
That definitely goes to show you how fast a barrel burns out with rapid fire and no time to cool between shots.
